Binding and Slicing
When I went to get my dissertation bound at Leeds Uni I saw that they had a machine to spiral bound which was a big relief to me as I had been paling to do it by hand, which I was quite certain I'd don wrong but with my dissertation to finish I didn't have much time to really think or plan it out very much. However as it used a machine I couldn't really have them cut before it went through. So I got the right measurements on two pieces of paper either side of the book and used a scalpel to slice them into the correct portions. It was here that I was really glad I did print and bind two copies and I managed to slice three of the pages into diagonals. All of this ended up being relatively simple but when I could actually move it about I saw the drastic difference between a combination that lines up correctly and one that doesn't. Up to this point I'd been so focused on the writhed work that I only really thought about how Trunchbull's big neck would look funny on a skinny body but not about how it would line up. This is probably my biggest failure of this project.
