6x8 Negative Carrier

I want to print 6x8 negatives in my Sauders 4x5 enlarger but can't find a carrier that will work, or even one for 6x9. I have a 4x5 glass carrier that I could mask. Would that be best? If so, what kind of masking material would you suggest?

Litho tape. But it might not be reversible.

What about a 6x6 or 6x7 carrier and cutting the aperture to fit the 6x8 format.

You can cut a mask from Rublylith. That's what i do on my Durst 138 5x7"
On my Beseler 4x5, i had a 6x7 carrier enlarged for 6x8

That sounds good. I'll try it. Thanks.
