Doe anybody know if these are still available?

I have an inflatable sanding drum that measures 4 1/4" D X 8" long. It was made with nylon fittings at each end and is intended to be mounted between centers. I used to use it when I made laminated canoe thwarts, and what's nice about it is that you can vary cutting and shaping action by varying the amount of pressure inside--- a useful feature for contouring and shaping.

I bought the one I have more than 40 years ago and have no idea where it came from.
