Woodfast 280 pulley belt

[Don Nethercott]

I have an old Woodfast 280 lathe still running well except the pulley belt has given up the ghost.
I cannot find anything on the net about a suitable pully belt.
It is a 3 ribbed belt approx. 13 inches long.
Does anyone know where I could get one or a similar one that would do the job.
Thanks
Don

Don, take the worn out belt to a bearing/bolt shop. They can measure your original belt and sell you one that will fit. You might have to visit an industrial area to find the shop

don, contact graham at woodworking solutions in south australia. apparently the are two different belts for that model lathe. i ordered some of him about three months ago. sent return post and cost about $27
cheers
