hey everyone, i've got a bit of a problem here. I'm supposed to model a variator. The problem is this, how do i model a belt/chain loop where the two radii of the loops are meant to change? I am reasonably certain it can be done because of this video:

If anyone could help me out i would greatly appreciate it.
many thanks

Ben,
Welcome to the forum.
Are you looking to just mate it such that you can grab the belt and just show
it moving or are you looking to animate it?
Regardless, here are a couple of threads that may help you.
