You can get a 5' link belt from HF for $25 or $20 with a 20% off coupon. It is a name brand belt not a cheap chinese one. I bought 2 to do my TS and my jointer. Any left over will go to the BS.
I want to do that for my band saw and drill press, have no problem with the table saw or jointer at this point. I wonder how it would work on the Shop Fox lathe.
