Winding masons line around and around until you have about 1/2 inch thick might do it if you are not taking too deep a cut. Tie a square knot in the ends over a pulley. Turn around by hand a bunch so that the strands even out.
Good luck to you.So much timber, so little time.

I think he means a bricky string line
Bunnings sell it in the tool shop about $5 I think

A knowledgeable turner has pointed out to me (thanks, you know who you are) that the Woodfast 280 uses a specialised posi-drive belt. Those have to be made to size, so the best source for that will probably be Woodfast themselves or one of their resellers.
I think this is where you go for Woodfast now: Woodworking Solutions | Quality Woodworking Machinery | Tools and AccessoriesStay sharp and stay safe!
