[BKARTS] question about re-making books

[seawall <seawall@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

wondering if anyone has any suggestions about the best way to cut into
pages of old books. i would like to re-do an old book by cutting out
most of the textblock (but keeping the edges as a container.) is it best
to glue pages first, totally or in sections? or to cut first and glue
later? also would like any opinions on type of glue to use- i was
thinking a stick glue rather than a wet pvc but am open to suggestions.
thanks.
