Re: Timing Belt Pitch

We used GT2 belt on our elevator and roller claw in 2011. It really worked out well. This year we went with the belting for our 6 wheel drive train and all our rollers. The belting works way better than poly cord. We used a tensioner, dead axle and a shaft to drop our wheels. Really cool design.
