Robbie, John Hall gave me a source a few years back. These folks will put together whatever you need. I purchased 24" round with adhesive backs. I do believe they have a minimum order of 5 or 6. The supplier is Industrial Abrasives |

Robbie, I have bought wide sanding belts. I bought them through woodworkingshop.com. A 25 X 60 belt gives you 2 radius dishes worth. |

Mark Kett at guitar jigs. He has 50 grit paper that is one piece which is a plus. The 50 grit lasts a very long time. |

Harbor Freight sells a 5-pack of 6"x48" sanding belts for $12. I cut two of those into 4 pieces big enough to cover the dish (when I lay all four of them out), and I glue them on with 3M spray adhesive. Cheap and effective. |

I use a 24" flat disc for trueing the archtop ribs and had always used pie shaped segments in the past to make up the 24" dia. It was quite a process to cut and glue the pieces in place & removal was no fun either. Bought a couple 24" discs from John a while back with self-adhesive. Oh so nice! Nelson |
