cleaning/ dressing leather belt

There is only so much you can do with old leather. Remember you are working with old dead skin. You're not going to rejuvenate or addmoistur/oil to the individual cells of the dead skin.

I have the lacers for up to 6" wide belts, the lacing hooks and pins . If you have trouble getting it done. I have lots of the rubber belting not much leather . I just bought a 25' roll of 1" x 3/16" leather for planer I plan on getting cleaned up repairing and using. It's overhead drive will be like your lathe only with two belts to operate . It may take several coats of neetsfoot oil to work into the leather. Remember years of sitting had there way now it's wait and see. Good luck
