Do you have a link or a picture to this type of replacement belt Jan?  The
chuck works real nicely on it, I'm quite satisfied with this one.

It's true that this creature makes a racket though, I'd like to lower that
if at all possible.  I plan to add a 2 axis milling table on this one day
and convert the entire thingy to a CNC (Chris-willing).

I have yet to break a bit due to the machine, all the breaks were from me
not holding the PCB properly.  All my vias are 0.024in/0.61mm.
