You put up V-belt racking in the basement.

Was thinking I wanted to put my new Simplicity belts on racking so they wouldn't get twisted laying in a box in the hot shed. I put up five racks, total. May put up more.

Very nice, I know where to get NOS belts, he he. Okay, now that your the belt man, was the PTO belt on a AC/Simplicity 700/7000 (or other models) made in increments of less than 1 inch, like 78.3 or something like that, and does a OEM belt work and last longer?

Thank you Mike. Lots of OEM belts are non-standard lengths and cross-sections. Typically they do last longer.

Mike, Sorry but no on the belts. The Allis belts are for display only (most are hard as a rock anyway). The Simplicity belts were mostly selected from dealer closeouts or bought on eBay because they were part numbers for applications I use.

Your display area is getting to look like Roxon's stock room!

But like you said you are not going into business.
