Re: PVC Rollers?

Basically what Andrew said.. The belt comb in his picture is pretty unconventional as it goes all the way around the roller.

More commonly one would use something like my attachment..

We usually use thin polycarb for ours but I have seen them made out of lots of different things.

The reason that we call them belt combs is because the applied piece we make looks like a comb before it is bolted on.

Regards, Bryan

Edit, In the second above picture by sportzkrazzy towards the top there is a clear piece that doesn't go all the way around the belt but still looks like its serving the same function.
