As Scott says, O rings from any industrial or hydraulics supply. The
real belts are polyurethane, and you may find poly O rings; if not get

another machine to the store, they can match the size. I could measure

I believe the belts on those projectors are just big O-rings. Grainger will
probably have them in stock.
Also, if they break, the show can be maintained by gluing them together with
cyanoacrylate superglue. Usually if they are brittle enough to break in
