How can you make a belt out of tubing?
We have some FreelinWade plastic tubing and would like to belt a belt with it to run it off of a motor.... how would we make a belt out of this that is the perfect size to run between 2 pullies? we are mainly interested in how we would melt the ends together to make a strong enough bond.

We have seen this done before at some competition during Rebound Rumble.
