Where to get Custom-sized print sleeves?

[wildbill]

I've got the clearbags.com 8x10 through 22x28 sizes but i'd like to get some with less extra bag to fold over for the frame sizes i'm using now.

ex: I frame my 8x20 prints to 15x27 inches, etc.

any ideas?

I am not sure exactly what you are looking for but try http://www.preservationequipment.com/ who have a very good range of storage and preservation materials

I didn't find anything there. I'm looking for a place that has or will make custom sized crystal clear bags to hold matted prints.

Still no luck. I've gotten a few leads but nothing solid. Someone must have a source!

Try Bags Unlimited. My wife has used them for quite a while for bags for collectable paperbacks (not custom). Their website doesn't mention custom services, but if you give them a call they might be able to quote something, or give you some leads. The website is www.bagsunlimited.com

And there is allways option to buy material and make it by yourself...

You might try an artist supply store. The one with which I deal can get archival sleeves in vitually any size, in units of 100.

Yeah, why not make them yourself. Quite a few plastics can probably be "welded" with a tacking iron. For that matter, those kitchen vacuum-sealer contraptions might do it. I noted some time ago that the edge of a good old iron will firmly seal PrintFile plastic sleeves. Probably a little handheld soldering iron at lowish temp would do it fine, just use a ruler and rule whatever size you want.....

The first one is archival -the second one, I don't know, but they are both good to deal with.
