Where to get long grinding belts?
HI, I'm new and in need of some advice. I am building a belt grinder/sander primarily for knife making. I have built a large horizontal sander with a 6in wide belt for wood working which works a treat, but I now need a vertical grinder with a much narrower belt. The problem being where to get long narrow belts in Australia. I'm in Perth and tried several places, but can only seem to get short (752mm x 25mm) belts. Alot of places on the net seem to state a belt size of 2" x 72" as a very easy to get and cheap belt, which would be ideal fo the machine I want to make.
Does anyone know where I can get this size (or any size similar) without having to pay an arm and leg?
Many thanks in advance,
Andy
