    Default Woodfast 280 pulley belt

    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
    Just do it!

    Kind regards Rod

    Hi Don , you might have to go a bit further than Grafton
    Measure the belt and try Boambee Industrial Supplies ....
    (BISCO) in Cook Drive Coffs Harbour , they have hundreds
    Of belts hanging from the roof , give them a ring they are
    very helpful and will send it by courier , same day !
    Cheers smiife
