Old endless belt

buffalosquash · Oct 21, 2020

I have an old endless flatbelt about 25 feet long and in good condition in my barn. My question, would this be something a person restoring old machinery be interested in? Thank you.

To the right person yes, there's one
advertised for sale near me right now for
$80 but there were a few at a local auction
last weekend that brought $5 each

Endless belts are more valuable than laced belts. If
it is say8-10 inches wide and endless, it probably
was a drive belt to power a thresher, grinder or saw.
Definitely has value to the right person. Some folks
buy this kind of stuff, to resell to Amish.

Yes, there is a young man on the John Deere Facebook page looking for one to run a corn sheller

you bet , they are getting scarce. i have some 100ft endless belts for thrashing machines.

I was going to cut it for use on something else but if it would be needed for it's intended purpose by someone I would rather they had it. I will put it on Craigslist and Face book before I cut it. Thanks to all those who replied.

Where is he located?

Illinois somewhere I think

Belt I have is very heavy. It would be costly to ship.

I had one that was about 60 ft long. I put it on ebay. if I remember right it sold for about $100.
