Source of Motor Cloth

I just this year had to re-rebuild a bellows I rebuilt 10 years ago
because the black and white fleece cloth leaked like a sieve.  I guess
that great cloth was not as great as we used to think?

Durrell has not rebuilt a player piano in decades.  He spent several
hundred thousand on the gray large hose to replace what used to be
twill hose and it is useless: it sucks shut just like he said it would
NOT do.

For good quality motor cloth, order all cloths from Organ Supply
Industries in Erie PA.  I have bought all my cloth from them for years
now.  I have never been disappointed.
