The best bellows I have purchased were from Custom Bellows in the UK. Just ask for a price and was told they are not accepting orders.
A friend that had made several bellows with no taper, made a taper bellows for me. It worked fine, but he does not want to make another.
I also know a fabric to produce a bellows can also be a problem. Having spent my life in the textile industry I had a friend that furnished me with three sample fabrics that I feel would work well. Two are cotton and the other a filament fabric. They are, of course, not light tight and would require a coating or paint to produce this condition.
Now, I am looking for someone that would make the bellows for me. I need now one for a 5x7 Kodak 2D, plus another for another Kodak 2D, but 8x10. I have samples for both.
It would be nice for this person to mount the bellows to the frames that I also have on hand.
Anyone who would have interest or know of someone who could do this, let me know.
Thanks and I look forward to hearing some good news.
Jack
