Re: PVC Rollers?

It's great to mention and bring up in this topic regarding what materials you should use for your rollers. Everyone knows a combination of ABS, Delrin, Aluminum, PVC, ect. Another one to throw in there is wood and 1114 used it effectively this year on their intake. It's just a great thing to remember that some of the most "effective" components of a system may just be in a scrap pile in your high schools woodshop.
