Am I crazy or out of date. I inherited a machine with 8" expando wheels that are 2" wide. Every belt for 8" that I've seen is 3" wide. Can they be bought or is this a fabricate your own situation. I'm reluctant to cut up an expensive diamond belt. Pending no other alternative, I'll replace the wheels.

When we were getting started we could get the narrow 8" belts pretty readily, but when Loretone's former supplier for molded rubber goods trashed the mold for the expando beyond recognition they didn't replace it, and to my knowledge Scott-Murray (Lortone) was the only supplier for them originally. I worked on the mold for the 3" expando, it had signs of abuse as well. There are some online abrasives sites that sell belts from various materials cut to length and spliced, but KN and Rons Rocks beats them in pricing.
