If you need wide flat belting to run power hammers or other tools check out,
your local farm machinery dealer.  Hay balers for making large round (5' to
6' diam.) bales use rubber or rubber-faced canvas belting to roll the hay.
Depending upon the make and model the belting can be from 3" to over 7"
wide.  In normal use these belts only wear in spots.  That means there is a
lot of perfectly good belting in the dealers scrap pile.  I traded a couple
of small hooks to the baler mechanic for a piece of belting the length I
needed, complete with brand new, machine installed lacing.
