    Yep, inspiring work there Stef!

    Can I ask what sort of belts you are using for your drive?

    And how are you keeping them tensioned? I can't see any idler wheels or anything in there. Do you have to take the wheels off to fit the belts?

    Cheers!

    thanks, I use a HTD 5 belt for the drives. I think it is the profile with the most grip on a pully.
    There is no tensioner on the belt, i used the exact center distance minus 0.5mm for these pully's and that works just fine for me.
