| | | Hello Philippe, Looks nice to me but (no offense) aren't they normally rounded? Looks very edgy to me. At least all the rubber belts I owe have a round shape. Play well Carsten (...) (23 years ago, 9-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

| | | | Hi Carsten, You are right, rubber belts have a round section, while my models have a square one. The real reason is that I used spring2dat that create square section. An advantage is that there are less facets and anyway belts are so thin that it (...) (23 years ago, 9-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

| | | | I just uploaded a Rubber Belt Generator utility, that creates DAT files for rubber belts taut between two pulleys. The rubber belt generated can have a square section or a round one, using cylinder primitive. This utility is available from (URL) (...)

| | | | Hi Kyle, (...) ??? For pulleys in the horizontal plane it is easy to rotate the generated rubber belt 90°. Or do you mean something different ? Philo www.philohome.com (23 years ago, 26-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

| | | | (...) I was imprecise. I was thinking of pulleys that are rotated 90º in relation to each other. It would look something like this in plan. (sorry for this bad diagram) Ox- "O" = big pulley "x" = belt "-" = pulley rotated 90º Or here's a good (...) (23 years ago, 26-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

Yes, I think so too - though the two axis rotation of straight parts might not be so easy. (...) (23 years ago, 27-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
