I wonder if there's a bag/universal bellows available. That would be great with short focal-length lenses.

Since Camera Bellows UK made the bellows for Canham...I imagine they can make you a bag bellows.

The fact he used Custom Bellows instead of cheaper options informs me that he is quality oriented, just like his father.

Without saying anything bad about either, as a positive response, I'd say, quite a leap forward for a modest budget. Hopefully, someone will get one of these in their hands soon, to provide a report.

I guess 3D printing is the way to go, unless you go for super nice yet super pricey CNC like Stenopeika. I do 3D printing with PETG as well, but the knobs probably won't last that long.

It is still aesthetically pleasing to use finely crafted wooden camera though. Keith said he is keeping a waitlist for his 8x10 wooden field camera for the future.
