I was hoping to get a Innie but the valve stem is smack dab in the center line
going to try and remove the stem and salvage that band of rubber.

The way I see it Mike, if I can't cut a straight line, maybe the fact I'm dealing with a circle will work to my benefit !
I thought about inflating , laying on the floor and make a jig for a marker to roll along the floor around the circumference but.... Too complex! Keep it simple right?
As Joe mentioned, there are clear mold lines in the rubber I can follow. First cut will be extra wide and outside those lines, more belt than I need. Once I get rid of the excess and the belt is easier to work with, I can map out my final cut lines.
That's what I'm thinking anyway. Definitely open to ideas and suggestions for making a nice simple , straight cut.
