Jim, I am getting late into this about making belts. I was out of town
and did not have the photos I needed. I have run a PMR with an S50
with no trouble in this way. When I make belts for Edison cylinder
phonographs. This how I made them and it has worked well for me
when running the PMR.

I cut the ends on an angle and overlap a 1/2”. Then thinned the top of one
end of the belt. Then thinned the bottom of the other end sow that they are
now the same thickness.

Hope this is some help as it has worked for me.
