Any recommendations for where to procure simple (and not too expensive) padded rolls to keep keyless flutes in (with 3 or 4 sections)?
thanks!

Anyone who may still have stock of Canzonet or Cavallaro flute & recorder rolls. You'll need to verify businesses have survived this year. Try various early music shops.
https://www.vonhuene.com/c-112-bags-and-cases.aspx
Mollenhauer also used to have some (I think no longer made) but some online shops show remaining stock.
Occasionally, you see a bag/roll on eBay, such as:

Hobgoblin is offering these:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Viking-flute-B ... 3858382607
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Viking-Flute-B ... 4486679401 (cheaper)
And from the USA shop at $8+ https://www.hobgoblin-usa.com/local/sal ... flute-bag/
Some ETSY vendors can tailor their bags for flute sections. For example:

Re: Flute cloth cases/rolls recommendations
The Vonheunes may seem pricey but they have a good polar fleece inside which gives you some padding for bumps and such, and the illusion that they would help dissipate moisture. I have a three slot for an alto recorder I used with a Rudall style flute. A pratten may require something a tiny bit longer. The zippers were of good quality when I purchased mine 6 years ago.
If you have a delrin flute that is not too expensive the cheaper non lined ones would llkely be fine, but I'd spend a bit more for a wooden flute.
