Fabric backed belts can also be fastened across the ends of a curved piece of wood, like a violin bow. Very handy sanding strips, especially if you have a lathe.
@user-ff1hn7ve9e good to know. Everything of this sort that I have used so far causes a bad bump in the belt when it is against a hard surface. Hopefully the 3M tape is thinner.

@@Oldtanktapper I have actually done that as well. Very handy indeed.
You can also glue them to a paint stirring stick, to make a strop for sharpening knives
@hankhill962 good to know
3M sell a tape to repair those belts.
