I'm not the handiest soul so I won't blame the instructions in the article
mentioned below. That said, I spent a weekend trying to put together bellows
as described. Except for a glue headache and a massively unusable pile of
folded fabric, I didn' t have much to show for it.
    The article as I recall is vague about the material needed. Nail this
down before you start. I didn't.
