Re: Is Anyone Successfully Shooting with a Belt?

I see what you are saying - with a 2" pulley, the motor has to go faster to get the same surface speed as an 8" wheel. But whether we have a belt going 100 inches/sec or a wheel with a surface speed of 100 inches/sec, if the friction is the same and the normal force is the same, then the slippage is the same.

It seems like is should work, but has anyone demonstrated that it can practically be done?
