This actually works well - you can tighten the turnbuckle to compress the tensioner slowly without using a socket wrench on the pulley bolt. And the parts came from Home Depot. The turnbuckle has a hook on one end and an eye loop on the other. Through the eye loop went an eye screw with a couple of nuts and fender washers. I use some needle nose pliers rather than fingers to tighten it once its under tension.
