The seminal article on DIY bellows making is in the July-August 1966 issue of View Camera magazine. Mike Robinson shows how its done in four pages - mostly pictures.

I just bought an old Eastman 8x10 and the bellows is not great. The
cheapest replacement I could find is $225, which is a lot of dough to
me. Is it really hard to make a new bellows? I have been fixing the
pinholes with a combination of black pigment and fabric glue (applied on
the inside). Any other suggestions? Also, one of the pleats is folded
the wrong way, probably from being stored that way much too long. How
can I get it to pop out the other way?
