I have an old South Bend 13” lathe. The drive belt came loose and I ran out of adjustment on the cloth belt. The cost of having a belt made is almost staggering. The price and quality of this clipper vise is great. Now I can just make my owns.
If you’re going to make your own belt, this is a great buy. I recommend this tool.
The Universal 4" Clipper Baler Belt Vise Lacer worked great! You just cant do the job without one of these. I have a vintage South Bend lathe that now works again!
