    Need Help/Advise on belt drive and pulleys

    I am trying to figure out which belt and pulley to use on the cnc I am building here. http://www.cnczone.com/forums/showthread.php?t=50855
    I am gonna use a drive shaft from left to right of the table and the stepper will be stationary. Id like to gear the stepper down with a belt drive to the main shaft. The shaft I am using is 5/8 dia the stepper shaft is 1/4 dia.
    What will work out best for me. Id like to be accurate as well as some speed.
    Thanks Steve

    I personally used the GT2 belts and pulleys from SDP-SI.
