feedback? See now you let me start talking...that can be long. It might be a bit too late but here it is.

The idea is cool, I was wondering though...is it topheavy? Because if it is at all as soon as that starts swinging that weight on the top would most likely count for more and more... Is the wood suppose to be used to make it heavy at the bottom or was it for a shield? There are lighter shields you could use (thin plastic?) if topheavyness isn't a problem allowing you that weight to make the braces holding the swinging arm more steady if that is needed or just to reposition that weight with some sort of spare weight so you can position it better or lower giving you better balance. I know it is wood and not a huge difference but it isn't hard and could help...

Also that is going really easily knock over other people's stacks even while guarded which could be huge as a side thing. It's cool, I haven't seen many of those.
