Belt Drive

How it works

• It joins two wheels at any distance so they turn the same way.
• It never slips. The ratio between the wheels follows their sizes.
• It works on a gear, small gear, crank, motor, dynamo, water wheel, windmill or cam.
• An end on no wheel does nothing.

Tips

• Drop each end on a wheel and it jumps to the middle.
• A loop with an odd number of reversals jams, and a belt does not reverse.
