The lathe has been making some noise in the gear compartment when the spindle is spinning. this morning, while waiting for my dearest to get ready to send me to work, I opened up the gear box to poke around a bit. I saw this:

The belt was taken out for the photo shoot.
I cut off the frayed rubber with a pair of scissors and the noise went away.

The lathe has been with me for less than 6 months. It is clocking about 2 to max 4 hours of use each week. Time to change them? Seem too soon for any belt change, especially with my level of usage.
