Excerpt from the article:

I surfed the net to find out if there were any tricks to self-binding--there werent any (well, not until now)! One website laid out the basic principles of neatly binding a book, but that entailed buying an apparatus from the website owner at a cost and time frame of delivery that I could not take. So I started thinking and experimenting. What follows is a distillation of the steps I learned to perfectly bind a book-yes, you can achieve flawless, machine-precision book binding without investing in a binding machine.

Sample:

Do you know that you can bind your own book? By referring to book binding I am not merely giving you instructions on how to put your written material together in a permanent form as say, pages in a ring binder, or driving a tin fastener through them. I mean how to bind a real book like the novel that you love to read, or that surprisingly sturdy romance pocketbook that you take with you everywhere. Now that kind of binding is technically referred to by publishers as perfect binding.

I learned to bind my own book from hard experience. I had to self-publish my first book at a time when no publisher would make a deal with me yet. I hatched a deal with Amazon.com, the online book retailer, but they would not produce my books-I had to make all the copies myself and deliver them to their office. The deal was I get half of the price of every book sold, which was a not a pretty good deal, but, nonetheless a deal that a startup publisher like me would grab.

The next day I hopped to the nearest mall to have my book copies bound by a professional binder. When I realized, however, that the binding cost alone per copy would eat up half of my profits already, I backed out. I had no choice-I really had to bind my own book.
