Last week I placed an order at Santa Fe Jewelry Supply for some Silicone Carbide belts and some Sterling Silver Sheet. The Belts are very nice quality and the price for an 8inch belt is only $1.20 each very reasonable. The Silver Sheet was also the cheapest I found on line. The cost per ounce was $12.85 the same at Rio Grand was .65 cents an ounce more.
The order was placed on Wednesday at 4 pm and the next morning UPS sent me a email stating they had received my package and that it would be here in a couple of days. When the order arrived everything was in it's own package and very nicely packed. Did I also mention that it also had a bunch of candy in the box as well.
So all in all I would give Santa Fe Jewelry Supply 2 thumbs up!!!!!

And you don't have to go through a ridiculous sign up to see what they have!
Thanks Jason.

Also the warehouse manager was telling me that they have 3M specially make a 6 and 8inch cerium oxide belt that works awesome. The price is like 4 or 5 dollars and is a cloth backed belt. He said that they actually work better than there diamond polishing belts that are 70 to 80 dollars.
We will see how they work as John "PebblePupdotcom" has one that I ordered for him hopefully he will jump in and let us know how it worked out.
They also have very cheap prices on Lortone Tumblers: 3A is $59.95 33B is $86.50 QT6 is $137.95 QT12 is $154.95

I had Jason order me some belts when he placed his order. I used the 100 -600 grit belts yesterday and they were good as any others I have used. Tonight I used the 700 and 1500 grit and Cerium Oxide 3m™ Trizact belts. I love them. The results were my best by far. I will try to get some photos posted Sunday.
