Cheap and easy Belt holder for Proclimb

Jeff C · Dec 21, 2011

Found these little velcro straps at Ace hardware for $4.99

There are two, so for the first one you want to curl up the belt and velcro it.

Then I put the other strap through the vents in the footwell and then fastened it in, pushing down on the belt so it would hold firm.

Seems to work really well sitting in the garage anyway......

I was going to scrap the whole belt holder thing completely. I had a great idea! With the side panels off, I was looking around for a spot. I thought I had found it. ON TOP OF THE BELT GUARD! I thought I was a genious until I went to put my side panel back on and the air funnels from the side panel were in the way.

The last two pictures are of my fabulous seat bolt thingy. The end of the bolt where you grab is off an old Unisys check sorter/scanner. If you want one just like it, you will have to buy a $125,000 check sorter for that one piece

We were scrapping one at our shop and I saw it on a table and thought this might be a good grab knob for that seat bolt......

Jeff, did you check to see if Doo had a patent on this? They may be after you next.

I used a similar Velcro strap once to hold a snow bunjie to my sled. I wound up buying a new snowbunjie...just sayin make sure its actually holding tight after a while...

Thats funny are you guys brothers? UPC!!!! LMAO!

I have another idea for you three stooges if the velcro does not hold up. I have a dozen or so straps that were once used to hold 100lb batteries in trays. They have a quick adjust plastic buckle on them, and would definitely hold your belt steady. I can give a few to the old guy, I mean Owen, and let you guys try them out if you wish.

By the way Jeff, am I the only one who thinks that button extension is going to look pretty silly sticking out of your backside while sitting on the sled??

I am just thinking about putting it under the seat on my 800 and putting a small screw driver in my back pack to get the seat off. On other spot I found that might work is with the brake side panel off you can collapse the belt and push it up into the hood where the vent is then I thought about riveting some Velcro to the air box to hold it up away from the exhaust. I will try to get some pics up of my thoughts. You would need a couple Velcro straps to hold it together tight then one to hold it up to the air box. Just an idea. Don't mean to hijack the thread

Hilly just gets someone else to carry it.

I had to carry his tools ar Revy. I guess he's born to climb.

Well, I have known Hilly for almost 30 years........

Aux670 · Dec 23, 2011

What part is harsh Hilly? Calling you three characters "stooges", calling Owen "old", or thinking that bolt setup Jeff has is going to look silly????? Owen IS old.......
