      Pricetag?

      So, Jon, old buddy, old pal,

      How much ya want for some of that
      pre-Norlin PAF Mojo Dust ™ ?

      Did you scrape it off with a vintage-reliquarian
      correct putty knife (I don't care but I'm sure
      there will be someone who will) ?

      -drh

        Thanks Wade. The belt was a standard size. It looks loose in the photo because the motor is on a hinged base. There was once a foot pedal that connected to the lever in the front of the machine that would put pressure on the drive belt. There is a little piece of bent metal that came with the machine that you wedge between the lever on the front and the frame to put tension on the drive belt.

        I didn't use a period correct putty knife. The mojo dust is probably tainted, DAMN!
