Very awesome design!

Yep, that's pretty much how it works. The roller squeezes the ball up on a choote, and into the hopper. The balls arrange themselves in there, but not zig-zag. We managed to fit 7 balls in there
We think being able to control the small balls gives us an edge, especially as not many teams seem to have gone that way.
Good luck to you guys, may the balls be with you ...
