It's too bad I was pretty tied up this weekend, it's a shame I wasn't able to see the Citrus Circuits machine before Saturday (definitely wanted to check out that feeder intake system too). Congratulations to them and their alliance!
You are completely correct about our grabbers pitching the cans forward on impact. We might release some of our test footage later this year showing our full power tests.
