idea for linear belt drive

[ptjw7uk]

The first part of my router design arrived today a 4.4m drive belt for £6 cant be bad but the teeth on the belt are not uniform so will not lay back on itself in the the teeth are larger than the gaps.
Oh well back to the drawing board it may do for the design on this thread.
The belt is designated as RPD8 the 8 I assume is the tooth root, tried a search but nothing I could recognise but cheap enough.
Now for some pulleys.
