Re: 2nd Most Awaited Q and A Answer?

Our design uses a "clam-shell" style appendage that will come together to drop a ball for the short-range shooter.

It is my understanding that as long as the frame perimeter is only crossed once, the appendage can fork off into multiple appendages (say 7" out for example).

Would a clam-shell design that is hinged WITHIN the frame perimeter be considered two appendages, even though it is mechanically contiguous?
