Thanks!

I am getting a bit confused as I am seeing references to a couple of different numbers for drive belts. I have a SS 48222 December 1979 model 500 and need a new drive belt from the motor to idler shaft. I have a reference of the original v belt number of 504193 but doing a search for that belt it co...

Thanks BuckeyeDennis!

Though it does amaze me the amount of old replacement parts that you can get from the SS. There’s not too many companies that can make that claim.

Yes I know this is a not a place to sell items. A lot of the stuff I have is no longer available through SS. I would like to sell to someone who would appreciate the old tools. I am guessing then that eBay would be a good place where restorers would search.

Appreciate the thoughts.

I will be moving and it's time to thin the herd. I have extra and duplicate attachments and small parts and want your wisdom on where you had the best luck selling your stuff.

Craigslist, Ebay, FaceBook marketplace, FB Shopsmith Sales Group? any other places?

Thanks guys and gals

Appreciate your assistance!

I have follow up question. The drive on my belt sander is one of the crowned ones. If I order 62 502932 Belt Sander Driver Sleeve Drive Sleeve and put that on would that give me a straight drive roller?

Here’s a couple of pictures of where the upper belt is in the 2 pulleys. They are running in a straight line.

I am glad I have a second one to look at as I slipped that one’s cover off and noticed I had that one out of line. So that’s another fix to do.

Yup and I got it on OK.

I picked up a basket case a couple months ago and it needed a through going through. Belts were shot, sheaves were stuck, you get the idea. The shoulder was rounding off so I thought since I was going through it I would replace it.

Now if I could only figure out hove to get the ribbed belt on.
