Enclosing a Vertical lathe- suggestions?

(OP)
A project Im currently working on is enclosing a Vertical OM-10 lathe. There is an opening allowing for tool travel when doors are closed. Any ideas on where I could find industrial blinds / accordians that will move with the traveling tool. Travel ditance of 70" x 8" wide. Last quote from Gortite was 600$ each US per blind and looking for 2. All help and suggestions appreciated

If you know what you need or want, design it and have your local sheet metal shop quote it.

Fill what's empty. Empty what's full. And scratch where it itches.
