 Lets keep a couple things straight, B56 belts do not get sawdust under them ever.   I run any old B56 and they last a LONG time.  Maybe with the B57 going in and out of the wheel is hard on belts.  Steve

Thanks fellows for all the input on belts whether B57s, B72s etc.,. See what we can do in this country when you put smart brains together......

Has anyone experienced a broken belt? I did last week.  I dug out a piece of pine knot with a screw driver that was lodged in the wheel groove.  I assume that was the cause.  I replace it with an old one that I saved from last belt change.  

When I get new belts, they will come from WM.  I don't feel like experimenting with other sources.

do the WM belts fit the surplus center sheaves just as well as the sheaves WM uses?
