Re: Using a turret? Whatre your ideas on elevator design?

Belts, yes belts ... we're on the same page. I've been searching through online catalogs, and there is an astounding number of different belts in the world.
For our vertical ball elevator, we would be looking for a seamless flat belt, about three inches wide and spanning a distance of about three balls. So the length of the belt would be a bit more than 4 feet, depending on the pulley diameters.
Can anyone lead me to a specific supply and catalog page for such a belt?
Thanks!
