TIL a trick for getting a smooth edge on book cloth

I was gluing down some cloth covers and kept getting frayed edges, so I tried a bone folder versus a plastic one. The bone folder heated up just enough from my hand to seal the fibers, no more fraying. Anyone else have a go-to tool for that job?

That's a clever trick with the bone folder. I read somewhere that the natural oils in bone can help with burnishing too, which might add to the effect kai_bennett mentioned. Makes me want to dig my old one out of the drawer.

Nice! I've used a warm spoon before too.
