How do the belts hold up to oil and coolant?

Appears to have no affect. Mike

I used the leather off the back of an old couch. It will last years after a little oil soaks in it.

I used old treadmill belt material on the Bridgeport. Very tough stuff, seems to move well with the table, and it was free. Mike

Yes, the Tequila is very good, but unlike oil on the treadmill material, it definitely has an affect. Cheers, Mike

I used a section of inner tube from a truck tire. It has a nice rounded shape which sheds chips well.

Ken, I think I would dye that another color so the wife doesn't notice where it came from
