Instructions
Slice book guts from cover, reserve end paper. Reglue end papers to cover spine gap. If using glue-on attachments, line them up on back and e-reader. If using elastic over e-reader, glue endpaper over heavy cardstock, glue clear elastic over that piece and then glue that whole megillah to the back. Use weights or clamps until it's dry. Enjoy!Difficulty:

Materials
Old book cover, glue, semipermanent glue attachments, metal ruler, time to let the dang thing set.
What advice would you give someone starting this project?
Update: after heavy use, the spine interior cracks and splits. I knew that gluing the paper in the gutter would eventually fail, and it has. I I would suggest fabric or ribbon in the interior spine "gulch", and gluing it to the covers, not the 'gulch'. Nothing lasts forever.
