    Default Replacement drive belts

    Hi all,

    I'm looking for a replacement drive belt for my late grandfather's lathe (a Craftmaster CWL-1000S, which it seems nobody's ever heard of!). Anyone have any ideas on the best place to find such things? I've sent email off to a couple of places in Brisbane, but no joy so far.

    Looking to get back into woodwork in general and turning in particular after not doing any for 3 years or so, should be fun .

    Thanks,

    Danny Smith

    An industrial supplies place will keep basic belts and can refer you to specialist suppliers.
    Do you have the old one as a sample? Belts vary not only in length but also cross-section.
    Cheers,

    Thanks Ern, will give that a go - I do have the original belt, so hopefully a replacement won't be too hard to find.

    Cheers,

    Danny

    Found one!

    In case it might come in handy for anyone else, Lewis Hoses & Seals (in Slacks Creek, just near Moss St) has a pretty good selection of belts, including one that pretty much perfectly matched what I needed. All for the princely sum of $6.05.

    Cheers,

    Danny

    Might have to change your handle to 'OverEagerBeaver'. Last post on this thread prior to your two today was over 16 years ago.
