The steel lacing would be a problem running a crossed belt as it would 
eventually tear itself up . Have to be an endless belt . Best place I 
have found it is at farm auction sales where they are selling an old 
grain chopper, often including the belt . Some of the choppers were not 
easy to install or remove the belt so it was left on permanently. I 
acquired a Cockshutt chopper with the belt still on the pulley. The one 
I use on my hammer mill, my Dad bought with an IH chopper at a farm 
auction years ago. Not too expensive but it was a few years ago. Plus 
not that many old grain choppers left out there maybe by now.
