Best option is obviously to get out a gun and put one of us out of our misery! Unfortunately my budget doesn't include a lathe that I am likely to be happier with than this sorry thing.
The call out is five inches by six inches by one inch one place I see it which leaves me totally confused. It is eight inches long close as I can measure and what is left is considerably narrower than the inch wide call out.
Rumor has it that the 18042.00 drive belt is a Gates belt and there is a lower quality and higher quality belt. Anybody have a Gates number for the belt or know how to read the dimensions on it? Could it have been 6"x.05"x 1"?
Worked on the lathe two days, didn't turn long enough to finish a goblet, back working on the lathe. Not a happy camper!
Edit: Those dimensions are from Amazon. Looks like probably the size of the box the belt is in.
