The main problem we have run into is figuring out how to get one disc to enter before the other.

We were thinking about doing it like Miss Daisy did where they have a spring-loaded intake with one side in the front having larger rollers than the other side.

Anyways please let me know what you guys did to solve this problem, thanks.
Why not just do a 1986 pancake flipper feeder? Sounds like you will only use it for auton anyway? Just a thought.
