Apparatus and method for cutting a continuous length of strip-like material into elongate strips and forming the strips into fastened loops such as belt loops and the like, including drawing means for drawing an amount of material from a supply, a cutter for cutting the drawn material into a strip of a predetermined length, grasping fingers for grasping the strip at the cutter and for transferring the strip to a forming area, a forming trough, mandrel and folding fingers which forms the strip into a loop, and a stapler for stapling the strip into a fastened loop. The operations of drawing the material from the supply and cutting the material into strips occur simultaneously with the steps of forming and stapling a previously-cut strip, so that high speeds of operation are possible.
