The belts are usually 72" and you cut to fit kind of thing but not all treadles are the same. Sometimes the handwheels will have a different diameter pulley and the belt will either be too long or too short if you use one treadle and just swap machines out in it.
Ask me how I found that one out!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

How do you put the two ends together if you have to cut them? Inquiring minds want to know. Started reading on this site a couple weeks ago, read a couple hundred pages and now starting to jump around and found this.
I use large staples but you can sew it together with upholstery thread or sinew.
