I want to hook up the old buzz saw for the old farmall H since I just bought 30 face cord of slab wood I thought the old buzz saw would work great. I need to get the old 6" flat belt replaced where do I get one or get one made? Also what kind of price am I looking at?
Thanks |

all the farm supply places around here carries the belting you just have to put on the lacing you need to put it together with. go to the tractor supply web site they carry it on line and will ship |

Most good farm and home places have baler belt stuff you buy by the foot and that works well. If not them a good tractor dealer also should sell the stuff. Or if you can find one as long as your wanting you could also buy a pre-made baler belt |

About a week ago I put a 6" rubber baler belt on my buzz saw. It works but I don't think it will hold up. I have 5 foot between pulleys and have an idler pulley to keep belt tight.I am picking up a lot of belt slap that I didn't have with the old style rubber canvas belt.When this belt goes bad I will order a rubber canvas belt. The 6" rubber canvas runs about $5.80 a foot in 3 ply and $10.00 + lacing . |

If you have any friends or farmers that have older round balers chances are they might still have some old belting material laying around. |

Most TSC stores in this area still have flat belting.
