2 years ago, I found this Instructables by lonesoulsurfer. The idea is great, the build felt quite easy so I bookmarked it, and started wondering which book I wanted to torture to do this build. Thinking about it, I realized that I would be using an old book without any value, to destroy it. I was not going to destroy a book I liked. So the idea of making my own cover started and with that the possibility of using a book that doesn’t really exist.
I always wanted to reproduce the hollow book seen in The Matrix. I thought putting light inside this book was not really out of place, and after all, if I make one book cover, I guess I could make two!
This build was the first use of my 3D printer as I wanted to emboss the title of the book. I started doing some embossing tests, then with the fabric I had bought. I then made some tests to find the best solution for the golden letters. As expected, a scriber was giving the best results.
The rest of the build is perfectly described inside the Instructables build.
