Where would you be able to purchase the treadle belt tool? Would Sew Classic have them?

Didn't see them at Sew Classic. I enjoyed the description from this site:

Sometimes you can find a bargain on ebay under Sargent or Bernard pliers.

I have leather belt on my treadles and you do use a staple type hook... easy as pie.

I have been told you can just "google them" but I found mine at the local flea market completely rusted solid.
These are actually old Singer brand.
