The grabber is made up of both lexan and aluminum tubing. The lexan was heated and bent on an angle to create the portion that goes between the ringer and the floor. The aluminum tubing was bent in a number of directions via pipe bender, this portion is what is actuated by a pneumatic to grab a hold of the ringer
Edit: In this picture the gripper is upside down as neither the pneumatic nor the chain to change the angle is attached
