THIS.
But don't use an exacto knife, use one of these :

probably the best $25 I've spent in a while! I finally broke down and purchased one of these earlier this year. no more trimming covers by hand (SLOW and tedious) and no more ugly crooked lines or misshapen covers

Looking for a place in the USA that does high quality hard back books of various sizes in low runs (as few as, say, 10 or something).

Is there any place in Europe where I can order some lithography, woodcuts, silkscreen prints to be done?
Of course, i need places that ship internationally..
Thanks in advance... |

A bit of followup on my post about US pressing plants from July:
I just found a good source for polylined innersleeves (don't want to use the crummy ones sold by Bags Unlimited) and inadvertantly discovered that the seller is also the head of Furnace Mfg in Fairfax, VA.
They seem to be a good source for vinyl mfg (and it seems a wide variety of other replication services, contact them for details if you like).
I do not know the extent of what they do in house (again, ask them), but the lp pressing plants they work with are in the Netherlands and Germany. I sent a few matrix codes over to Eric, the head of the business, to see if he could ID them as being made at one of the places they use. The best sounding lp of the 2 (Obsessed, Live Music Hall Köln December 29th 1992 on Roadburn) was made at one of the factories they use.
I never asked their prices since I'm no longer running a label but this is a possible alternative mfg source. Seems they have been around for 16 years, a good sign.
Usually when I order things online my main criteria beyond the price is friendly response and I got both here.

Their prices are fucking horrendous. No idea how their quality stacks up though. |

| Meh, on second thought the prices are fair I guess. Has anyone here used them and can vouch for the quality? |

I can vouch for Furnace, I've done several CD layouts that were pressed there and they all came out nice. Razorback has been using them for years for CDs.

my local print shop has been ridicolously incompetent, so i need a quick (!) and not too expensive place to print decent tape inlays with three flaps in germany/europe.
only the inlays, so brutallica are out of the picture, they are way too expensive for that.
thanks!

| I'm looking for LP box album protective sleeves, preferably with (resealable) flap. Does anybody know where I can possibly find those? Recently spotted some sleeves on bagunlimited.com but they are way to small for bigger sets... |

Looking for artists for hire to do artwork for my black death metal band. We already have two artists working on art (Angie Decay & Bartłomiej Kurzok) but need more artwork always. We're planning a demo then two spits in the future and hope to get out there and play tons of shows, since we have nothing recorded I see no point in saying the band name honestly.
Just throwing this out, any names would help. Putrid & Mark Riddick are booked into infinity and we're a no name band, so please, just don't (this seems to be every persons, even other artists suggestions every time I ask on the internet)! Also I know this is my first post, I didn't just come in randomly to this board, I've been a lurker for a few years sporadically with no username and am a big fan of the label. |

I've never seen resealable ones personally, however I have some of these and they work okay for 3-4 LP sets depending on the cover. the disembowlement box set fits in this for example...

warning though, their shipping rates are a little high
