Re: [FTC]: baton resistance

There is "a lot" of clearance inside the dispenser. The side rails are 1" and the OD of the PVC is about .8". Also remember the weight of the other batons pushing down inside the dispenser. The fuller the dispenser, the more force you'll need to overcome the weight and gravity.
