Questions about this tool

When is a hand folder still useful?

Use a hand folder to press the crease after scoring or work near a joint that cannot sit flat on the board.

Can the scoring channels repeat a hinge offset?

Use the marked channels for a repeat fold. Dry-fit the case separately to check the final gap beside the spine.

Does twelve inches describe board thickness capacity?

It describes the scoring surface. Check cutting media and thickness separately.
