I thought about that and realized that the bend in the belt would alter the spacing between the teeth on the belt, thus making the two belts not fit together. This was true with the KOP belts and pulleys, but i don't know how this effect would play out on a larger wheel.
What else could you do with a t-shirt? Wait... never mind... I retract my previous statement and realized this is FIRST and we can do anything with anything. ;) - Jeremiah Johnson [more]
