What do you mean by "band"?

Belt?

Sorry - I mean belt. For some reason this word completely escaped me.

I was to say... Change the cylinder! Then you can switch from the Columbia Band to, say, the Arthur Pryor Band!

(pardon the pun)

Any good resources to get a belt for an Eagle? It seems they’re shorter than what a typical Edison would require.

You can buy new leather belting, and cut it to fit.

Contact Wyatt Markus (restorationarts at gmail dot com), he provides a couple of different widths of some very fine leather belting.
