1914 : Step Back into Time

Until I can either make a new bellows or find one for sale, I am using a temporary fix for the original bellows os black silicone. The lens is in excellent condition for its age...and even though 116 Kodak film is impossible to find, 120 can be used with a bit of a creative fix by putting wall plugs in the spools. 24 hours for the silicone to cure...and then to test out the light tightness in the darkroom. Perhaps a few more places to tough up, another test, and then the real test with film.

In the meantime, I will be looking for a good website with instructions for making a new bellows or I might be able to find a replacement bellows for sale. Wish me luck.
