4. Square the belt ends. (See Figure 5.15.)
a. Use a double arc to establish a cut line on the belt. Using the centerline
drawn on the belt, pick a point on the line at least two times the belt width.
b. Strike an arc across the width of the belt at the belt end from this point. A
nail may be used as a pivot point with good wire or cord attached to it. Use
a marker or chalk to mark the arc.
c. A second set of arcs must be struck with the pivot point of the arcs on the
centerline with a radius of slightly less than half the belt width.
d. A cut line is drawn where the 2 arcs intersect each other.
