Sargent tool, New Haven Conn. Parallel jaw pliers, obviously. Usual pressed steel plated Sargent handles. Any ideas about what it was used for? Best wishes. Gary (IMR)

Cool tool. I've seen one of those but the guide was circular.

This one works with circular or V. It looks a little like a PEX tool, doesn't it? PEX tools don't need a punch, though. Did you know what the gas pliers were? Best wishes. Gary

That would be the round type of belt. Lots of different kinds of machinery used to be run with belts. Some round belts, some V-belts. That is what the old tool is for. Adam and zoidberg both get a star for today. Congratulations. Best wishes. Gary

Yes however I haven't seen them with screw/vampliers teeth at the end. An excellent addition.

Around 2'40'', you don't need to remove the belt from the machine. You can do it awl with the belt in place.

Well, looks like I will have to be buying one. I've been trying to get an old Singer treadle up and running, and have used essentially every type of pliers I own, except for these, as I don't have them.

The correct pliers are good if you have to do several. I think you can do the job without them. Cutting the belt won't be a problem. You can easily punch the holes for the staple if you are careful about it. You can actually sew the two pieces back together if you have some stout thread instead of using the metal connecting piece. Staple, I called it. I don't see any reason why you shouldn't be able to crimp the connector with something. Maybe something like the old fashioned hog ring pliers that upholstery trade uses. Best wishes. Gary

Yeah what Gary said.
I've used heavy duty thread, waxed nylon and upholstery staples.
Small vise grips work well to hold the staple but most any blunt nose should do it.
