Re: Ball Magnets

We, from the start tried to implement a ball magnet, however we had complications from the start as well. During the competition, we started out with two motors turning a tube of pvc wrap with surgical tubing. about have way through this device broke, so we improvised. we stationized the motors, slid a pool noodle over the pvc, and it work better than we could have ever imagined.
