My first reaction too. But I was consoled by the fact that you're using carbon fiber.

As far as picking up the ball, I have this guess. Those two side-board mounted cylinders will pull your entire tower forward on an angle. This will allow the yet-to-be-replaced wood cradle to "kneel" in front of the bumper, and the wheel at the top will scoop the Trackball in. Am I close?

Looking forward to seeing this in competition.
