Secret Book Compartment

I will be showing you how to create a hidden compartment inside of a book.

Supplies

Book(preferably thick)

Box Cutter

Glue

Something to trace(optional)

2 Bookmarks

Pencil

Step 1: Marking Pages

Go about a quarter of the way through your book and put a bookmark. Put the second bookmark another quarter of the way through the book or however many pages thick you want the compartment to be. This part will be hollowed out.

Step 2: Gluing

Start gluing together all the pages between the bookmarks. You only need to glue the outside inch of each page.

Step 3: Tracing

Go to the front of the first page you glued and trace a rectangle the size for whatever you want to hide. Make sure there are at least about 2 centimeters between the edge of the book and the hole.

Step 4: Cutting

Start the cutting on the outline using the box cutter. Leave the last 10 glued pages uncut. This will hold whatever you're hiding.
