Ok so my belt drive system from my last update just is not quite up to par in terms of grip and anti-slippage. So my new series of changes are planned out and underway now. First, I will be bumping up the height of each pulley to 2mm up from 1.1mm. This will double the surface contact area for way more belt grip in and of itself. So then I can use a 2mm wide belt. Next, I'll be increasing the drive pulley diameter to 1.5-2mm additional diameter. This will also greatly increase surface contact with the belt for more grip. Then finally, I'll be using a commercial belt that is said to have the highest grip of all belts - its called a polyurethane belt. It is a flat belt with 2mm width and .9mm thickness. It should be a huge upgrade to my current setup! Here's some photos of it:

The best part is you can customize the diameter of the belt by melting the two ends together! This was a key thing I did not know! So I can create just the right size and it should be perfect! I can also double these up by melting two belts layer by laer for a 1.8mm thick square shaped belt that is even less stretchy and so can be even more able to tightly grip my pulleys. I'm very excited about this and think it will take us to where we need to be *crossing fingers*.
