    Re: How to glue a bellows to frame?

    Back in 1976 I had a set of bag bellows made by Camera Bellows (Birmingham, UK) I had to make & supply the frames. The company attached the bellows to the frames using an Impact/Contact adhesive, most likely using Evostick, that's always been the major UK supplier/manufacturer.

    The original bellows were badly worn, damaged through poor storage so I never used them and they too were attached to their frames with Impact/Contact adhesive. After 50 years the adhesive holding the bellows to the frames was still doing a perfect job. In neither case were the bellows secured in any other way.

    Ginette, contact cement is flexible too. Has no importance though as you surely don't need the bellows frame to be flexible...
