Treads as a conveyer belt?

I am in the process of building lego model #8294, an excavator:


It is super fun to build and I can't wait to finish it. In the progress of constructing, I realized that treads could be used as a conveyor belt to transport objects, such as balls.  The video below is a quick demonstration of a ball moving upwards.  In the future, I would attach a motor, but for this I just used my hand to move the belt.
