Nine years of experience boiled down to 16 pages, 3,500 words, and visuals to help connect all the dots. This is the tutorial I wish I would've come across when I was starting out.

It has the tips I've picked up along the years, the techniques that help enable consistent results, and, what I feel is the most important, the reasons for why I do what I do. If I maybe go too deep into the details, it's only because I care quite a bit about making quality items at the highest level I know how to. 

Part of that knowledge has come from the community itself, including the interview series I built out in 2018 - Ten Lessons Learned. It's worth reading lots of perspectives on similar topics to get new ideas and challenge your idea of what's the right way of doing a given task. 

All that to say, I hope this tutorial helps you. I learned quite a bit while writing it, and I hope you learn quite a bit using it. And if you do decide to make a bifold following these steps, I'd love to see it! Drop me a line on IG or send an email through my Contact Us page. 

Craft well 🤘
