Bryan, you can use the string if you wish. You must know the diameter of the pulleys, the thickness of the belt, the pitch of the belt, the precise centre to centre distance between the pulley center...and a slide rule. Or use Art's links. |

Slide rule ... Nuck, you're showing your age. And to really twist the knife, Bryan will respond wondering what a slide rule is. |
