Book Binding Punch Cradle

My Sister likes to make her own journals from recycled notebooks etc. and needed a way to bind them. I got the idea from some other book binding cradles and designed this one. EDIT (10 Jan 2025): So, a couple of people have asked for a “page stop” to make it easier/quicker to place pages into the cradle. I have updated the model to include a “page stop” and have added the updated files here with the following filenames: Book Binding Cradle - with page stop - complete - 28mm extra draft.3mfBook Binding Cradle - with page stop - complete.stepBook Binding Cradle - with page stop.f3d I have also made it easier for someone using Fusion 360 to edit the hole size in order to accommodate different awl sizes. I hope this helps.
