I want to add bands to my machete sheaths to hold various stuff, and wonder what size tubes to buy . I am using 1 1/2" and 2" pvc for the sheaths, flattened out.

The cracking may be caused by Ozone. Keep them away from electric motors.I purchase mine from Walmart. It's a inexpensive source. Last time I bought one in every diameter they had. It doesn't hurt to have a variety because they can come in handy for a number of uses. The smallest diameter (like for a ten speed bike) is REALLY small.
And they only stretch so far. Stretch/stress them too much and they won't last as long. When stretched and exposed to air they eventually start cracking.
How? I use ratchets for holding them together but I can't work out how inner tubes would work.Bike inner tubes are also good for exercising and gluing wooden chair legs together.
If you tie the ends together, they act like big rubber bands.How? I use ratchets for holding them together but I can't work out how inner tubes would work.
Right up there with baling wire, chewing gum, and duct tape.Ranger Bands!
I have a little saying/joke in my family - if something needs to be fixed, first ask if a Ranger Band will work. 7 times out of 10 it’s a YES.
Will have to take some pics and will post soon.
Also, yes, get a variety of sizes and cut them at different widths as needed...
