Re: How Many Balls can a Trailer Hold???

Anyway, 1197 did a more "realistic" test with our trailer and we came up with 25 balls (23 in and above the trailer and 2 through the pipes).

There is a +/- 3 ball margin of error. Therefore, a trailer should hold a maximum of 22-28 balls depending on how they settle during the match.

Does that sound reasonable?

We did the same test and got the same answer. I really think we will see trailers with 20-25 balls in them (hopefully not ours ...)

We have also found that a rather large percentage end up hanging on the rails. After throwing 20 balls at the trailer, we often find 4-5 hung on the rails.
