Re: Speaking of lathe belts
??? Look in the yellow pages ( if they even still exist ) for a

Anybody know about Trav-a-Dial installation?
Got a Trav-a-Dial off EBAY and discovered it didn't have the base. Bought one from https://www.buytrakparts.com/measurement-trav-a-dial. Made a mounting bracket and now I'm trying to get it installed.

Re: Used Equipment - Soon To Be Scrapped!
I didn’t see any Gage blocks yesterday, but he’s got a set of pins. I don’t think he’s in a position to ship anything right now, but you can call him.

Well, it looks a lot like those urethane tires that go on band saw wheels. It is stout stuff, with only a little bit of stretch.
