(You're not going to find those methods being taught anywhere here today) Had a teacher in junior high who knew how to repair book bindings. It really wouldn't be that hard for Augnocchio to find someone to teach him how. ;)

I'm sure you did. ;)  ....  Walked across a junior college campus with a 3 ring binder folder with about a half a reem of visible lined paper with hand written notes in it, two days ago,....and got the most peculiar looks from people walking passed,.... I thought my "fly" was down. It was as though I was offending them, intentionally!.....   "with my 3 ring binder"

In regards to Augnocchio (clever),  I would think there would be no motive, and even less desire to seek out such a skill at that time in his life, and simply resorted to a skill he'd learned from his father. Being Pinocchio, in our world of such temptations, was task enough. It's difficult to imagine our August thinking about anyone but himself during those times. But we have so little to go with to fill such a huge gap in his life, that we're forced, by the writers, to believe that little had changed with the predictable behavior of Pinocchio between the ages of 7 and 35.
