Excellent instructional video! I have a standard model B that needs a new belt. Thanks for the tips.

This is a skill that is a great introductory skill for people wanting to repair phonographs since it is the one thing that usually stands in the way of getting one to run.

I echo RichardLee; excellent instructional video.

I found/watched this video or possibly another like it from Wyatt some time back.  He made it so simple that even I could figure it out.

Wyatt's videos are excellent. I am glad this one is on the forum!

Great video with ideas I never thought of. I have only once changed a belt as I was waiting for the new belt to arrive. Well what I used (an old belt split) worked so well I never used the new belting material when it arrived. Now I see where I might have done a better job. Thanks so much for posting this. Neil
