Price is crazy! It also looks way too long to be of any use for cassette belts. But...got me thinking about picking up an old slide rule, scratching out the marks, adding some posts, and calibrating it as a fun project. Gap in the market maybe

I got mine for about half that price, in much better condition, although it also came with about 1500 belts of various sizes......

It does work great, on all size belts from tape counters to turntables.

I secretly want one of course..
What's the smallest belt it can do out of interest?

3" is the smallest but that's under 1.5" from pulley to pulley. It sizes by 1/4" increments up to 20"; I use it all of the time, belts may be off that tiny bit and your trying to figure out why your equipment is sounding crappy.

Here's the company that made them, maybe they have some NOS
