Belt Clamps - Ord Bot Hadron

I have something like this holding my belts currently. [www.thingiverse.com] but without the teeth.

... and it just doesn't cut it.

My Y-Axis belt won't stay tight. Does anyone have models for a better belt clamp? preferrably one with grooves or something so that it'll hold the belt more firmly.

Try this: [www.youmagine.com]

It uses the belt's own teeth to prevent any slip. Even if the the center post were to break loose, the belt won't slip.

I ended up going with something almost identical to what I linked in the first post that my friend had printed out. They're working perfectly, the teeth hold the belt with no slipping, I have both belts real tight now.
