Anyone have a picture of the IPSCO belt tensioner?
Another helpful suggestion is to make the inner tensioner nut from a threaded rectangular block of steel. That way is rides up and down in the guide, but doesn't require two wrenches to tighten it...
Therefore you only need 3 hands, instead of 4-5 to adjust the tension on the belt.
