I've finally accomplished the thing only a superhero could do.....after several hours of trying to roll a link belt over with my bare hands; all while in the confines of the belly of a 20" bandsaw; I actually got it to flip. If you have ever tried this in a tight space with no room for your hands; you will send accolades of congratulations!
It was impossible to remove the frozen on wheel without breaking the cast iron (yes, I tried a pull) so I was left with using a link belt (I don't even like them); because they are so inclined to be the wrong side up and very unforgiving in nature. Anyway, I'm off for a few days to heal my bruised up hands and voice box from cursing. Did I mention that it was too short...then too long, requiring reconnecting it several times.
