Re-cycle your old ones.

For all I know, the last manufacturer of 127 spindles was EFKE/Fotokemika,
and those spindles are too big for the Rolleiflex 4x4. You have to grind
the spindle sides down a few tenths of a millimeter (at least, IIRC), so
you might as well keep them after all the work.  ;)

Note that all Ilford offers here is to cut film sheets into funny sizes.
Any customizing of the resulting rolls of film is left as an exercise to
the photographer.
