Fortunately for our industry (not to mention our sanity) most commercial belt and drum sanders have become standardized so that they all take belts of standard sizes. But there are still a great many older sanders out there that require the odd sized belt. In addition, belt sanding is not exclusive to woodworking, and there are many sanders being used around the country that may use odd sized sanding belts which would be wildly expensive and difficult to replace. And some sanders, old and new, actually use sanding belts as part of their conveyor belt feed system.So, how does one source a custom sized sanding belt when needed?
