Book with wooden boards

From: Cyril Formby <*formbys<-a*> Date: Thursday, April 7, 2005 · formbys<-a

I am currently working on a 14th century lectionary, of which a
quarter of the front board has been lost due to decay and woodworm.
I would appreciate any advice on the best way to repair the board to
enable the new leather thongs to be laced onto the boards.  The
leather is still sound.
