Re: Frisbee shooter
Here's what our team's shooter looked like:

We used two mini cims and I believe we geared them down slightly. The blue thing is a piece of foam similar to pool noodle material (I think what we actually bought was a yoga mat). This material gave us compression and and the wedgetop tread on our shooter wheel provided grip. Together these allowed for minimal slipping on the frisbee. We cut an angle into the foam to prevent the frisbee from walking up the side of the channel and we added teflon tape to the plexiglass rails that the frisbee rested on in order to reduce friction as much as possible.
