turning a turntable
we're going to attach a toothed band to the outer rim of the turntable and have a sprocket (and motor) mesh directly with that.

the only problem is how to actually attach the band to the turntable, because the band is taller than the turntable

any ideas/suggestions?

thanks.

oh and the belt will be permanently attached around half of the turntable to allow for 180° of movement
