Keith, great to hear you have lots of work. Custom Bellows is certainly one of the businesses I was concerned about and was part of my motivation when I contacted you during the lockdown. I would be a big loss to the LF community if you went out of business. Once my current order is complete I have another batch to send you.

See post #10. You can PM him, or Email him at info@custombellows.co.uk
I received an email overnight from Custom Bellows Ltd, my two 4x5/912 Sinar Norma tapered bellows are completed and ready to ship
In case anyone is interested, total cost for both in US $ was $275 including "carriage" which I think is quite reasonable for what you get!
Just paid in GBP and my two new bellows will be ready to take out of the box, and go right onto my two 4x5 Sinar Normas. Also note I used PAYPAL they no longer accept VISA. Keith attached the new bellows to the old Norma bellows frames.

My bellows just shipped, photo courtesy of Keith at Custom Bellows. This will get three cameras up and running.

Yes, especially the 7x17, just took a trip with the 8x10 and kept seeing panoramic scenes.

Sinar Norma Special Bellows No 2075 by Nokton48, on Flickr
My next request for Custom Bellows will be a fabricate a Sinar Norma No. 275 "Special Bellows". This is 5x7 Norma Standard to 8x10 Norma Standard. I recently saw one of these advertised (been looking with no luck 30 years) and it was absolutely trashed. Luckily I have a set of Norma frames in good condition. I will again ask them to mount the frames to the finished bellows, ready to go.
This is what I'll be sending them.
