Mark,
that is very nice. Who is the maker?
Cheers,

Mark Hillmann
Nice..Are they an older set of bellows?
upiper71
they are 2 weeks old


I saw Mark’s bellows a few weeks ago when I visited him in D.C.
As well as being about as solidly constructed as is humanly possible, a Hillmann bellows is a work of art.
Anyone who needs a really top class bellows should not hesitate to purchase them.

Very nice looking gusset and welt, there, Mr H.!
Thank you both!
SOLD
Make another, please!

Very nice.
The bellows on the far right looks like it’s wallnut. What are the others?
cherry
blackwood sterling and ivory

next in line, bocote,buxus, flamed maple and another run of ten in walnut

Lovely craftsmanship Mark.

What is the collective term for bellows ?
Would it be a “bushel of bellows” or maybe a “pumping of bellows”
or even a Rory of bellows
RORY
I pulled apart a bellows once - it was too noisy. I tried it then with one paddle - couldn’t even hear it.
Hey Mark,
Do you make a “clothes” filter for the intake port? Winter is coming. ![]()
Also, what would you charge me to change the trim on my half set from blackwoot to boxwood?
