I have a new bellows that I think will fit, but can't figure out how to get the old bellows out. There is a plate that covers the back of the bellows. The rollers and film rails are part of this plate. I've drilled out the 4 rivets that seem to be holding it in and it still doesn't want to come apart. What am I missing? |

Take the rollers off, remove the 2 screws on each side, then pry off the plate. |

Paul, this is not an Isolette, but an old Record. It doesn't have screws. It is held together by brass rivets, and I have already drilled them out. I'm thinking mine might be epoxied down as well, because it still doesn't budge. Other possibility is that I missed something, but I don't see what it could be. |

Well, for those of you who have been hanging on the edge of your seats, the plate is glued down at top and bottom, and the bottom is also held in place by the tripod socket. |

There's always a way. Thanks, for the advice on the record. I've done em but can never remeber which is which, figure em out as they come in. |
