Pentax lenses

Kodachrome

Can someone point me to where I can purchase a lens adapter device so that I can play with some older Pentax lenes on my Canon Digital SLR? I also have some extension tubes and mini bellows from the Pentax 35mm SLR system.

Also has anyone tried the old Pentax bellows and glass on their digital SLR yet?

I am using the Adorama M42/EOS adapter to allow me to use older Pentax (and other brand) M42/Screw/Universal mount lenses. (I move we should call them "Screw/U" lenses hence forth )

... and here is an example of use:

I don't have a bellows, but my father does. I have used M42 extension tubes however.

The most exciting development, is achieving focus confirmation from my Canon body:
