I like your use of belts vs. chain. Did you design the drive based on a given belt length, or are you using custom length belts?
Speaking from experience (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/photos/29306) it is doable by hand. It just takes a lot of time, and a lot of rookies (And yes, there is its twin in that picture, parts of that were lightened too

I also second the liking of the belt, from what Ive heard that would make it nice and quiet.
