Greetings Teams,

For better or worse, you can see our progress here. Over the next few days more pictures will be added as the sub-assemblies are mounted and maybe it will make more sense.

Or maybe it will make no senses at all, but that is part of the fun !!

Nice! looks like a consistent dumper design. Have you thought of making the dumping direction variable, or maybe just try to use a CIM on the brush to speed it up as it dumps?
this all assumes i understand!:D

Originally we wanted front, left, and right dump chutes.

what you see should be either front dump chute or top gun shoot, depending on how it is operated.

what you are not seeing is the damper that has to actuate to press the balls against the belt to feed the shoot or reverse acutate to feed the chute.

when the damper plate gets installed it should make a little more sense.
