Create a pulley belt

- [Instructor] In this video, we take our pulley wheels from the prior lesson and make a belt drive like the one you see here. Let's go to the perspective window and just do a close up zoom. Notice that this profile is a little bit tapered. It's not super obvious. So, I'm going to go ahead and turn that off. We're going to start this from scratch, but this will happen quite often where you are given certain geometry but there's no curves whatsoever. I've got this on the solution layer. We'll turn that off. Let's also go ahead and maximize the perspective view ports. We can see what we're doing a little bit better. I'm going to come down to this bottom pulley. I like the fact that it's centered on the origin. That can typically make things that you work on or produce a little more accurate. Now you're seeing these curves, or lines, all over the surface. Those, if you didn't know, are called isocurves, and we can snag…
