If it's a v belt, not a flat belt, get a link belt. Much easier.

Thanks, everyone. I have taken your advice and ordered a link belt. Unfortunately, my lathe will be down for a couple weeks until it arrives.

It takes that long for the delivery to get to you? Link belts are reasonably common. Where do you live that delivery takes that long?
