I don't. But over on rangefinderforum.com there's a thread somewhere about remaking bellows for an Agfa Isolette. They're common cameras, so you'll have to wade through a few other threads to find it, but a search there should tell you a usable material.

For the price of about 2 hours of my labor I got a near perfect Isolette bellows from a well known company in England. The build quality of the other bellows folder that you mention is noticably less. I have side by side pix. Perhaps someday I'll figure how to post them! |

Why don't you write to him and ask him? |

I'd take a small bet that it's the first hit you get when you type camera bellows into Google...

Can't find in archive. Just Google. Only one in England. Exchange rates have changed. Worked out details on the net and paid by credit card. |

Yes that is the firm, which always comes up first on Google. They provide a great service for all types of bellows. Even made me a set for an early Vickers Metallurgical Microscope - makes a great piece of furniture, mounted on its Mahogany cabinet. The small clockwork carbon arc illumination unit is quite a talking point, with those who have no knowledge of this type of lighting. |

Camera it may not be, but I'd love to see a picture of that!
