Treadmills

I've devised a new elevator system that runs on the basis of a treadmill. Imagine a narrow elevator shaft with treadbelts oscillating on opposite walls. By carefully calibrating the speed and pressure ratios of the belts, I've managed to achieve lift by mechically sliding a platform into the shaft, perpendicular to the belts. Granted the first few trails were catostrophic and nearly leathal, but since the testing is finally complete, it feels much more stable overall. 


Currently the rig only loads a two floor span. With luck and tweaking in the future, I'm certain I could advance this distance to the full five levels of the laboratory. However for today, my work is done.
