Last year we saved a ton of money by using a good bit of square tubing for the frame of our robot, square tubing is a lot cheaper then C channel. We get to use so much raw material that the cost should go down in certain places. - Derrick Maust [more]

469 did a conveyor like this with timing belt in 2012. If anything, the flat polycord is more grippy.
