I have a JCB (JCBD-PP900) Planer bought from Argos (yes I know...) which has already eaten its way through two rubber belts. I can`t for the life of me find replacements anywhere - tried all the sheds.. Is there anywhere online anyone knows of ? Steve

Can't help you, but can't resist pointing out that my 7 year old Bosch planer is still on its original belt. It gets used a fair bit too.
Its the size you look for not the brand.

Consign it to the tip and remind yourself that it's a false economy to buy Chinese tools from Argos. Even with the 2-3 year warranty they are playing the numbers game that either the usage will be low and no failure or that the price point is low enough that you won't bother to return the tool.
Had you bought a Bosch, Makita or DeWalt planer, a) it is unlikely that the belt would have gone in the first place and b) if it had, you would be able to get another.
