are these belts worth anything? By jenningsjosh (Read 2,349 times)

Just so everyone knows, the belts are measured from the outside. But using a tape measure is not the righ way. You put a mark on the side of the belt put the belt on its wide side on the floor then put a mark on the floor where it lines up with the mark you put on the side of the belt. Then roll it straight and when the mark comes around mark that point on the floor and then MEASURE the distance between the two marks. Take that measurement and convert it to MM and you have your length of the belt.

Just like you would measure a tire or anything round LIKE YOUR HEAD

Now that makes sense on finding out the belt length..

[Alleyoop]

Yes, and it is the same as going around with a tape measure no difference, but you have to do it right.

I assume use a cloth tape and not a metal tape measure. Cool.....
