I am finally getting back to refurbishing my Veritas Power Sharpening System (the original version, not the mk.II version available now) that I posted about a few weeks ago. I did contact Lee Valley asking for a parts diagram to help me disassemble the unit and identify the parts I need. I have not heard anything back, understandably given that their parts department is currently closed. In the mean time, I was able to completely disassemble the unit and have been able to source all the parts I need online, with exception of the drive belt. I have been searching for a “drive belt”.
The belt is completely flat on both sides. I would think a ribbed or grooved belt would also work. The belt is 11” in circumference (measured around the outside of the belt), 1/2” wide, and 1/16” thick.
Does anyone know where I could find a suitable belt? Is “drive belt” the proper term to use for this part? Is there a better term or phrase to be searching with?
Thanks in advance!
