Guys I just picked up a south bend heavy 10 and it has the cast pedastal and needs a belt I had a old serpentine belt laying around cut it after measuring the lathe pullys and I came up with 62.5. the belt I cut measured 63 yet their was still a 1 in or so gap in between the belt I cut. this was done with the spring tension lever disengage as like 1 would do to change your belt to a diff pully and also with the tension adjuster all the way up so I am able to compensate for when the belt stretches in time can any one help me with this serpentine conversion as I'm new to the lathe belt deal and would like to make some chips I'm unsure I am measuring right and would like a step by step if possible don't have much cash left to make mistakes lol but what I got on line is a belt size of 61.5 also I will post the serial so u guys know what lathe it is thanks for any an all help
