And these belts looks beautiful and have a vintage look to them with those T nuts!

Modular belts make belt renewal on a belt drive lathe so much easier. Grizzly tool company even says in their owner's manuals that for belt drive lathes not to remove the spindle for a belt change but use a modular belt.

We have used Nutlink belting for years for vintage cars, where the original belts are long unavailable. It just never seems to wear out - marvellous stuff. It is also available in the wider D section which some larger old cars, e.g. Bentleys use.

There have been many types of link belting over the years, with various trade names. This is the best in many people’s opinions.

I use a very similar product here in Canada that’s just called Link-belt. The segments are made of the same sort of material and the little locking tabs are integral and not made of metal. It’s more expensive than regular V-belt but it seems to last forever, run quieter and stand up to oil and heat. The thing I like most about it is that I always have exactly the right sized belt for any machine. I can only find it in 1/2 inch, unfortunately

I have often wondered about those belts . looks like a great thing to have as an emergency back up

I just love your cliff hangers! I'm always looking forward to what might be coming in the next video.

Thanks for sharing!

I remember seeing a really long belt like that on a tractor. It was an Allis Chalmers tractor, with a large mower deck underneath it. It needed a very long belt.

grinding paste is oily. talk is better, but rossin is ultimate. rub it on the belt. if you value your fingers, probably best not with machine running, ay?

[@monk1100]

I have an original leather belt

[@electric7487]

If you've played with PowerTwist/Acculink or modular belting similar to it, how do they fare over Nutlink when applied to sub-minimum pulleys?

[@graemewhite5029]

I always thought it was pronounced "NEW-TEE-LINK" as it was an improvement on the "old" style belt that you removed from the Boxford and also, the rivets are "Tee" shaped if you take one fully out ?

Do you not use soluble oil when you do your milling. Tips will get hot and go blunt
