Replacement bellows

[Olivia9801]

I need to repair the bellows on my very old bee smoker. The leather type material has had it and it appears to have a canvas type backing to it and measures 64cms x 8cms.

Does anyone know of the best material to repair these with and the best place to get some as it’s only a small strip?

Regards

Buy a new smoker. It is not much.

Duct tape/carpet tape?

When it’s something you’ve had for a while, it becomes sentimental and a real shame to discard it and replace it with a new one.

That’s why intend to repair it.

A piece cut from an old seat cushion?

They may end up like my treasured great great grandfathers axe, handle and head replaced several times....

Well done! I have located an upholsterer late this afternoon, who maybe able to provide what I’m looking for. I would like to restore it as well as keeping it going, but if this fails, Amazon it will be!

Thanks for those that responded.
