Looking good. Based on what I see it looks like you will be using tread (roughtop/wedgetop, like that used on many teams wheels) for your shooter wheels. I would caution against this, using thread on a high RPM shooting wheel in my experience has a tendency to turn these balls (as well as the poofballs from 2006) into confetti.
