**Three types of conveyor ends have been used successfully:**
* Motor end in ¾” MDF
* Pulley end in ¾ MDF
* Pulley end in ¼ MDF

These pulleys built from ¾” frames have turned out way better than I thought they would. I first used 1mm thick belting at 100RP; this was a bit under powered. All the power is used to move the thick belts. It would move a full gallon of milk with no issues.
These conveyors built from ¾” frames have turned out way better than I thought they would. I first used 1mm thick belting at 100RPM and this was a bit under-powered. All the power is used to move the thicker belt under tension. It would move a full gallon of milk(3+ kilos) with no issues.

With the 0.15mm thick belting that is currently be used the motors can be smaller, especially if you put in ball bearings.
