Nerdforge makes absurdly large Stormlight leatherbounds and delivers them to Brandon Sanderson (youtu.be)

I'm not a big YouTube guy, but this is interesting, and I know a lot of people in here are reading/looking forward to reading Wind and Truth. Her end result is some beautiful (obviously impractical) books that make the regular giant hardcovers look like little baby books.

If you ignore the handful of YouTube-isms it's a pretty cool video.

edit: adding screenshot of the books compared to the regular ones.

Nerdforge is one of those creators that I stumbled upon years ago, even though their stuff normally falls outside of my niche interests. They are definitely worth the sub.

It looks like some of the other stuff is also cool, but mostly not my thing.

I actually dislike YouTube enough that I couldn't see my own post because their domains are blocked, lol. It's not that video is never the right medium, but the vast majority of it is stuff that would be better as a short-medium article. I had someone who knew I'm currently obsessed with Sanderson and really like the aesthetic of leather bound books specifically send me a link, or I wouldn't have seen it.
