Overheard a librarian say 'that binding won't last a decade' about a machine-made hardcover

It made me really think about the long-term quality of my own work. Do you have a go-to method for ensuring a book will hold up for 50+ years?

What kind of work are you doing?

Do yourself a favor and get a heavy duty walking foot machine if you're doing any kind of quilting or denim repairs. Makes a world of difference compared to fighting with a basic home model.

That's a bit misleading, machine binding can actually last decades with proper care.
