Oh my.

But how did you get the wood to look so shiny?

[Navid Shafa]

15 seconds into the video you can see the mega pneumatic. It has a baby pneumatic attached for the latch. The back wall for shooting is latched and stationary, except for when they want to open it?

Holy Catch Batman...

*My only question: Is there hot detection for path selection, or is it 3 hot/3 not?*

[mikemat]

I love the catcher and rear intake. Sweet looking robot as always.

I figured as much.

What methods do you use for compensating shots with under-inflated and grossly over-inflated balls?
