Re: pic: TerrorBytes 2015 Shooter Plate (Drawing) [Rev 2]
The drawings look better than the first, hands down.
However, I'd like to suggest thickening the ribs (the 45 degree spokes) to .375" or maybe even .5". This is because you might see the two plates warping or bending as the fly wheel spins (if COM is off-center) or as the balls ride the curve. You'd especially want to thicken these if you plan on this being used as a demo robot for a few years, or a design used in and actual FRC game.
There are a few other spots where I'd recommend thickening, like the wheel bearing holes and the little material holding the top of the plate to the bottom (I'd post a pic of it circled, but I'm not able to atm).
Overall, looks good.
