: : Does anybody know the force required to push the bridge down? Maybe the weight or the measurement given by the strain gauge.

: : Thanks in advance....

: Roughly 10 lbf to push up or down from the horizontal balance point, roughly 1 or 2 lbf to move it from the tipped positions.

: Also, we determined today, finally, that the goals will accept 13 black balls without them touching a big ball set on the top, 14 and still hold the big ball, but a bit precariously if you tip the goal. For you scoring strategists out there.

: Dodd

when you got the 13 balls in were the pvc pipes, around the side, "streched" out...bent (i guess) out of shape????

or when you had the 13 balls in were the pipes the same as before the balls where put in...
