I got my belting yesterday. Wyatt is right, it is the best!!!When it becomes available, I'd like 15' for my Columbia machines.

Are you willing to post to the UK and, if so, what would be the payment method?.

First Class to UK isn't too expensive. I have yet to order more belting. When I get a definitive width for the Columbia machines, I will make my order with my friend that cuts this stuff so nicely.

Hi Wyatt
Is this leather belting cut in a circular manner and straightened? or is it cut in strips and joined?
I use Kangaroo skin, we have lots of it here in Australia, I have tried using circular cut lace, but found it difficult to get it to stay straight enough to be good as a belt.
Regards Marcel

Hello there. This is cut from irregular pieces of leather on a special machine that also takes the "bias" out of the leather. Kangaroo leather is also excellent! But, in America our kangaroo population is "protected."
I am working on getting Graphophone leather in a 5/16" width.

UPDATE: I have sourced a piece of leather which is a DEAD-ON-MATCH for the brown used on Graphophones! STAY TUNED, as I will only have a limited amount of the wider widths. I will post pictures within the next week.
