Sorry, Tim. I think that I sent this one to you personally by mistake. I'll
see if I can get it right this time:

Inspired by the postings which have been made to this discussion group, and
wanting to learn more, so as to be able to contribute more, today I located a
copy of Agricola's 'Metallica', which I'm sure will keep me very busy for the
next several weeks, until it will be necessary for me to return it to the
local library.
Lee, you mention Lindsay Publications on your web site, so I'm assuming that
you get the catalog, but just in case you might have missed it, and are
interested, or if anyone else might be interested, Lindsay sells a 26-page
book entitled 'Make a blacksmith Bellows' for $5.95. According to the
catalog, the book contains 'Complete detailed plans for a large commercial
bellows'. Here is a link to his web site:

I have no affiliation with Lindsay, but I know of no other 'modern' plans.
