The white things holding up the superstructure is 1" or 3/4" angle, if I remember correctly. It was modeled off the superstructure of our 2016 robot Focaccia, as we used a less substantial version of that to attach our top rails. We've put plenty of things on the top of our 2016 bot and it's held up just fine, so I think the shooter should be OK. Also, I don't think we're going to let anybody sit on it
