Recycle your old cam belts
Monday, November 4th, 2013I have found a good use for those horrible rubber cam belts that otherwise get thrown away when they are changed. I made a strap wrench out of bits of scrap metal and an old cam belt. I put the first one together quickly without any special tools, just a hacksaw, drill, vernier callipers and a welder. It turned out better than I expected so I then made a larger, heavy duty version.
