    Lifting strap with buckle to alternate between two lengths

    I think you may need a lesson or two on responding to questions without being snarky. I fail to see how there is ambiguity in the word "buckle" when I'm talking about lifting straps. If asking for advice on this forum means dealing with people like you, then it's not worth my time.

Is it possible to increase the holding torque of a motor using gears? or do you just increase...
