I am loving this build Andy! And thanks for taking the time to share with us. Your moving along so fast, making me feel guilty for time spent on the couch!
i need to get back building and your really helping to motivate me.
The transition to the second conveyor does look tricky. Definitely need some speed on the first to throw material. Could you elevate the end of the first conveyor a bit, lower the second and slip under so you have a straight drop?
