Re: POLL: have small balls been abandoned?

We had two wings that opened and closed via pneumatic cylinders they weren't fancy just 1/2 inch PVC over I think it was 1/4 inch metal rods. We also had a ball kicker on the front of Loki. That consisted of two 8 inch wheel chair wheels belt driven from the seat motor. That seemed to work well after we built in a new transmission at Great Lakes.
