Sand,

the transmission project is going along well. As with any engineering challenge however I am now on my 3rd iteration.

Traditionally our team has been using chains and sprockets and we know they work.

I was just curious about the belting because I have seen many variable speed mechanisms work off belting. but at a second glance I don't think that belting would be quite suitable for robot purposes.

Thanks for all the responses!
