freddyjollo Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 cant remember which thread discussed the loader/Eject mechanism using a tiny rubber belt that will inevitably stretch over the years and the disc wont eject as a result. QUestion was you cannt depend on the replacement belts being available on Ebay for ever so a substitute would be nice. A guy on another forum suggest LOOM BANDS ( what ever they are for? ) he said they are typically not good quality but they work ( but for how long he mused ) Certainly they are very cheap and plntiful on Ebay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freddyjollo Posted December 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2016 I know as I have got some but will they be available in 5 years time? any way so much money for so little is quite offensive? pure exploitation - should be 10 for £7 or so. And I bet they charge P&P on top? Any way nice to have an alternative to Ebay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And also discussed >> here <<, down in the thread. You may want to look for those funny looking "orthodontic rubber bands", but please note, those can also age over the years, so it mignt not make much sense to "stock" a lot of them at home.
