Hi - I am attempting a belt drive system as well. (early stage) There is a lot of information on the site www.brecoflex.com - they sell belt drive components, as well as others do also.

You can use the search function in the wood projects log - search on "belt drive".

Last but not least, I have been poking around various threads here and asking lots of dumb questions about belt drive based system. If you search on my user name and posts I have made, a lot of them will be related to your goal.

Thank you I will start reading your posts
I ,ll hope that I get smarter of it.

Hi cor,
I can't done it but i will give you the basic information on belt drive.A Belt is a looped strip of flexible material, used to mechanically link two or more rotating shafts. They may be used as a source of motion, to efficiently transmit power, or to track relative movement. Belts are looped over pulleys.There are different types for belts available like flat belts,round belts,timing belts,vee belts etc.
