Reply to "Replacement Belt for MTH Dispatching Board"

I think this is a club board.

Mth why a belt like this?.  I'll give a point. For using the top and bottom for back and forth

But. . this should of been done with a long worm. And the gear attached to the trolley. 

Switch at each end.

An acme thread and nut could be used too. 

2 bearings at end to support rod. Simple... And this would of been a lot less to make.

And would last for a long time. 

That might be my fix. 

I guess. Even using a long bolt and nut would work too. 

But you would need to add a gear. A worm you can use that with a motor with a gear on end  To turn it. Less work..
