Make your own V-Belts FARM SHOP Maintenance 16-5-31 Your readers may be interested in our PowerTwist "make your own" V-belts. They're made of links that you can fashion in seconds to the exact size needed for any particular job. The belts come in 0, A, B, and C sizes, but the A and B sizes will cover 80% of farm needs. Individual links fit together without any special tools. You simply place end tabs through the links and twist them with your thumb, then turn the belt inside out. Links can be added on up to any length and there's no cutting or splicing needed to connect them. The belts are stronger and will last much longer than conventional belts. They're particularly handy in tight situations where shafts and pulleys would have to be removed to install a regular one-piece belt. The link belt can simply be threaded through the pulleys and fastened. If you get the size wrong, you can add or subtract links as needed.
