Thanks for the extra comments.

I think the consensus on the simplest way to do this is to make ascending 'steps' (i.e. effectively tapers in both directions but in steps) using a narrow grooving tool, then blend them together with a flat file. That's what I'll do.

Good luck to you with the blending, the difficult part would be getting the crown symetrical, so the belt will naturally stay in the centre. perhaps only actually running the belt will tell you if there is a tiny bit more filing needed on one side, the side the belt moves away from.
