WHY BOOKBINDERS LOVE SPACING GUIDES
Traditional bookbinding often requires repeated measuring, marking and checking.
A spacing guide gives you a physical reference instead.
Place the correct guide between or alongside your book boards and use it to help create a consistent distance from one section to another.
That makes them especially useful when you're producing multiple journals or trying to achieve cleaner, more professional-looking covers.

GUIDE SIZES
Guide Metric Approx. Inches
Small 5 mm 0.20"
Medium 10 mm 0.39"
Large 20 mm 0.79"
The measurement is clearly marked directly on the T-shaped guide so you can quickly identify the size you need while working.
EASY TO USE
Position the T-shaped end against the edge of your board, book cover or work surface.
Use the long straight portion as your spacing or alignment reference.
Once your material is positioned, remove the guide and continue assembling your project.
No repeated measuring. No trying to remember which gap you used on the last cover.
MATERIAL
Each tool is 3D printed from PLA and made for lightweight, practical everyday use in your bookbinding workspace.
Because each piece is individually 3D printed, very small layer lines or minor surface variations may be visible. These are a normal part of the 3D-printing process and do not affect the function of the tool.
PLEASE NOTE
This listing is for the bookbinding alignment guide set only.
Books, paper, cutting tools, mats, glue, decorative props and other items shown in photographs are not included.
Measurements are intended as crafting guides. Slight manufacturing tolerances are possible due to the nature of 3D printing.
CARE
Keep your tools away from extreme temperatures, hot cars and prolonged direct heat.
PLA can soften when exposed to excessive heat.
Clean with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or solvents.
MADE BY LITTLE BIRD SHOP STUDIO
Each tool is produced and prepared by Little Bird Shop Studio for bookbinders and paper crafters who want their creative process to feel a little easier and more consistent.
Little wonders, made for big smiles.
