We actually have a similar design and were wondering what you are using to power the wheels from the Cims. Is it V-belt, timing belt, chain? We tried using V-belt but are having a lot of problems with the Cim not being able to get past the friction in the V-belt and pulley. Do you have any suggestions?

Also what type of metal are your shooter arms made of? Is that just box aluminum?

Thanks so much! And Good Luck!
We used 9mm HTD timing belt to power the wheels. As for the materiel it is just plain aluminum tubing.
Expect a follow up on suggestions.
