Do any of you know where an endless flat bed could be purchased and how a endless flat belt could be put together?

So far we have experimented with contact cement. It takes two people.

step1 - coat one end in contact cement
step2 - one person holds the two ends together and tries to push the coated end inside the other end
step3 - the second person uses a phillips screwdriver to help push the coated end inside the other end (it is easy with some practice)
step4 - let it set for about 30 min

So far the glue is holding well. Not sure about the long term yet. There is a small bump at the joint, but it does not seem to cause us a problem.

does that make it really stiff right there? or is it flexible still?
