Re: Frisbee Loader

Just curious have you guys done any testing with a vertical hopper where the discs are stacked?

We did this on a table top, just stacking discs, they like to stick together. I guess it can be made to work, but why?

It's one of the least space intensive ways (in fact, the lowest volume possible) way to hold 4 disks. Design dependent, of course, but we've had good performance with something that looks much like this.
