Fit and buying advice
The body length leaves less space at the ends for a long fold than a larger cradle. Check the guide's first and last usable holes before planning a full-size signature.

Questions about this tool
What does it add compared with a bare guide?
It includes the tools to pierce and sew plus a thimble ring and thread.
Can I plan a fold exactly 8.9 inches long?
That is the approximate body dimension. Measure the working span where the paper actually sits.
What if the book is wider than the guide?
Compare a larger cradle with a documented working length, such as the Craftelier kit.
