Re: Shooter Help

If you go with attaching conveyor material on wheels spinning 2500 rpm you want to make sure it is attached REALLY well, and that it is evenly spaced around the perimeter. You run a real risk of hurling conveyor material around the arena at 25 MPH, or having your mechanism shake itself apart from vibration. I would think long and hard before attempting this -- it's not like riveting conveyor material onto wheels spinning at a few hundred RPM.
