There is a pneumatic gate at the bottom of the hopper. When she has gone from 'suck to blow', we reverse the rollers and open the gate. We can unload 25 balls in the matter of a few seconds.

weigh? that's a touchy subject for an older woman to answer....and it's very impolite to ask such a thing.

Man, I wish I was there yesterday to see this thing in action. Anyway, it's turned out a lot better than I expected. Well, all we have to do now is clean up...

Thank you, being 40 pounds overweight will drive a team to the mighty Rotex machine quickly. :D
