Also, you are in Colorado Springs, so if you wanted, I could see about helping you out to make these repairs, since I have done so previously.
I've rebound one other stitched hardcover (a Rogue trader book) by removing all of the pages from the book, slicing the binding off with a hydraulic cutter, tape-binding the loose pages and then cementing the bound pages back inside of the cover. Seemed to work pretty well, though if you have any ideas, I'm open to suggestions

Drop me an email and I'll see if I can't catch up with you for coffee or lunch sometime during the week (or on a weekend). We'll talk games and binding. Oh, and I wanted to thank you for the new forums, too (the MeetUp replacement). Very cool on yout part! My email address is: jdrakeh <at> msn <dot> com
