I would like to see a serpentine bell setup, but not at that price.  THe
co. I work for
uses a specialty bell in our machines.   We custom machine all the
pullies, and buy
the belts.   At this price, and say quantity of 100, the people making
these are
getting rich quick.   Give me a week off and I'll design and built a
good working setup.
                                                                       ERic
