Craftsman has discontinued the drive belt for my wood lathe model #351.217150, can't find it, any thoughts as where I might find one.

Not only that, Phyllis there is very, very knowledgeable. You have the model number, probably a slam dunk for her. Prices are very fair.
Lee Valley and some other places sell a link belt that is said to be better and more durable than V-belts. It is also reasonably priced and can be made to any size.

The downside to link belts is that they are rated fractional horsepower.
Not sure I understand the term "fractional horsepower". Can you elaborate?
..Does my long answer make sense?
Yessir, thanks for the education.
take the belt to an industrial suppliers that sells bearings, belts and chains. every town of any size has them. If I know what town you were in I would Google it for you. they can take the old belt and match it up with a new one. It will only cost you a few bucks that way. Put you town in your profile and maybe some family wood worker member near you will chime in.
p.s. welcome to the forum stick around this is a friendly place.
Don, I'm impressed with your writing skills. From the look of your profile picture, you couldn't be more than 4. Hahahaha
