Ive read a lot of great info about bellows from all the info here my thanks
to all who have contributed. However my interest is in wetplate cameras and
would like to make square bellows. Were they folded differently. Is there a
source for pre 1880 style bellows making? I have not examined a lot of
originals but understand that not only do they not taper but the corners are
different too. Am I correct in this? Any help will be appreciated.

Best Regards,
