Re: Looking for roller brush

Our team worked today on a similar mechanism, using a rotating PVC pipe with k'nex pieces sticking out of it to draw the cells in. later we changed the k'nex to pneumatic tubing, to see how a flexible bristle worked. this seemed to work just as well, with the added bonus of not getting caught in the cells.
