Where can I find replacement fabric bellows for the Bellows II and Pentax Slide Copier units? I have perfectly good metal - the "machinery" is in beautiful shape, but apparently bugs (silverfish, roaches ??) ate the fabric parts while the units were in storage. |

Micro-tools sells bellows material. Sometimes you can use black-out curtain from the fabric store. The black-out curtain is thicker that normal bellows cloth and you may have to paint it black. I have used it and it works well. A film changing bag is another possible source of material. If you don't care about appearance and are in a hurry, you can take one of the plastic photographic paper storage bags, cut it open and laminate it to black broadcloth. |

Oh, I guess I should have pointed out that this is in case you want to make your own bellows. If you want to buy a bellows check with http://camerabellows.com |
