have to find one with a removable platen so I have some flexible belt space to work with
Let me know what you find. That is something I would be interested in if it doesn't cost a fortune.
Harbor freight has a cheap one that you can remove the platen. Lee valley sells good belts and leather strops. HF also sells cheap Bowie knives to practice on. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
