In my spare time, I do a bit of bookbinding. It helps to keep the voices in my head quiet.
Each year the Accessibility Professionals Association hosts a conference in Austin. Part of the conference includes an auction to raise money for the Jim Boyce Memorial Scholarship.
Last year I made a hardcover edition of the 2010 ADA Standards with a gold-leaf wheelchair on the cover.
This year, I went for something smaller and more useful. A leather-bound “pocket” edition that includes a notepad. You will need big strong pockets to carry this thing, it’s only 4.5×5.75 but it’s 1-1/2″ thick and weighs as much as a cue ball. It’s durable and should be very useful to the lucky winner.
