Line shaft and leather belts

Powder Keg:
Forgot about the old machinists books. I'll have to find mine. Thanks.

Powder Keg:
Here is a good picture of a Laced Belt They seem to be a little stronger? The holes are farther apart. This helps prevent tear out. At least on the older belts.

I've read that it's also better to use something like an awl to push holes into the leather than to use a punch that removes a small piece of leather. That is how I'll be doing mine.
