We never got around to trimming the top of the shooter, so the students are holding it at an angle. It's not quite 45 degrees. There is a Lexan flap behind the shooter, that is being held down over the top of the ball before inserting the ball into the shooter.

What motor are you using to spin the wheel, we used a single wheel when we had the shooter a few years ago and used a CIM. We are not for sure if we want to use two wheel or one, I like the one wheel because of the amount of space required
