Linisher/belt sander issues

[GreensandsParticipant @greensands]

I have recently stocked up on my supply 610×75 linisher/sander belts in grades P80 and P120 but have not been able to find a source of finer grades in this size. The P80 is used for wood working where it is excellent for bring end sections to length and the P120 for my metal working but there are times when a finer grade eould be useful. Possible sources of supply would be most useful.
<p style=”text-align: left;”>I also have an issue with the clunk/clunk interruption on always gets after fitting a new belt despite taking great care to following the directional arrows. The problem fade with time as the belt wears in/out but I would be interested to know of other peoples experiences. All thoughts and ideas most welcomed.</p>

Some abrasive suppliers will make up belts from any commonly available abrasive, albeit there’s normally a minimum quantity of at least ten belts. Another alternative is to make your own.
