Have you ever embarked on a new project and thought, "well, this shall be easy-peasy!". But then you start to think about sprucing up the text and placing thematic imagery and two weeks later you are screaming, "OH MY LORD WHAT AM I GETTING MYSELF INTO."
Hi there. It's me.
( SO MUCH MORE IN THE CUT )
Ignore the title spelling error, please
So remember how I made those three Solidaritek ficbinds? Just as I was finishing them, a little thought whispered in my ear "What if these fics are all together in a thick book? What if you add-in comments and meta and extra stories from Tumblr? And what if you made it all pretty and super extra?"
And from that, I embarked on a month-long quest to create an anthology of Solidaritek fics.

[2026 Keystone: During this period, I was suuuper invested in Minecraft SMPs, particularly the Dream SMP, Hermitcraft, the Life Series, and Empires SMP. Along with this, I was particularly invested in shipping Jimmy Solidarity (from the Life Series and Empires SMP) and TangoTek (Hermitcraft and the Life Series) together, whose ship name is Team Rancher or Solidaritek. Hence, the title.]

After a week of printing, cutting, and gluing, I have finally finished a long-held goal of mine to bind these three fanfics!
After the last mammoth bookbinding project, I wanted to do something simple for a change. So, I decided to bind some Rancher Duo fics for my personal enjoyment while using some of the cheapest materials and leftover stuff that I can find. While the overall binding process was comparatively simpler, there were also a few new tricks I use in the making of these ficbooks.
