So can I ask, how do those intake wheels bring the boulder over the lip of your (I presume shooter - flywheel/catapult) ? It seems to me that, since they're in the same plane as the lip, they wouldn't be able to push the ball over.

It is a lazy susan! We got all of the parts for the Andymark Turret, and only had to source the correct size bearing for it. So far, it seems to work great!

Oh, okay, that makes sense. Is it a catapult then or an angle-adjustable flywheel?

How is the boulder held into the flywheel while you aim?
BTW, awesome design!
