If you still cannot find one.
Try making your own , details on my tips files below.
Find a scooter/motor bike inner tube right sort of diameter , cut a strip,
cut across the width to make thinner . Maybe cut from a flat sheet of .5 or
1mm rubber. The set in the "cylinder" probably no matter for a record deck,
smaller one for cassette deck requires offsetting angle of the ballister
pulley drive.

Hi!

> If you still cannot find one.

I did, and it may show up here later today when the mail comes. Or so
I hope.

I really rather liked the paper belt idea proposed by another poster
on this thread. I may have to try that if for no other reason than to
say that "yes, I have made a paper belt for a turntable".

Not that anyone's likely to ask. But I will know.

In all seriousness, if I do have to try and make one myself, I'm sure
I can puzzle through it and I appreciate the advice you have offered.

Thank you. That was me. The paper belts I made lasted a surprisingly
long time. If you don't use the turntable all that often you may not
have to make another one for quite a while.
