Thanks for the thoughts folks... John,,, thing is I dont really have a choice. As far as I can find at this point anyways... the size belt this thing has is unavailable over here. John posted a link where I could get some... but I will have to order like a couple 100 to make it worth while to bring into Norway from the US. Pain in the patootey as it were.... so I figured I could make my own. Looking at the store bought I have, its got an angle cut splice... butt ends together with some kind of clear plastic tape on the back side holding it together. Does anyone know off hand what kind of tape is used for this. Its going to have to be really strong and really adhesive thats for sure.. Cheers RicB You know, when I read Ric's post, first thing I thought about was going out to buy a tool for which I could get supplies. Seems like all the dinking around to make belts would be counter-productive. Unless you don't have anything else to do, which sometimes I don't. Most of the time, though, my being a cheapskate ends up costing me more. <g> JF
