Finally found a decent solution regarding the jams. By blocking balls from entering from the right side of the robot, balls don't get stuck permanently anymore (although there are still some delays).

Finally found a solution, though there are still occasional jams.. Balls get stuck in the ring, because the diameter of the hole allows the balls to jam easily. I've reduced the diameter by adding a little barrier. Now ball jams are far more seldom. Probably a further reduction by about 2-3 mm...

Update: when arranging the balls neatly in one layer (see pic), there are hardly any feeder problems. So a ring-shaped barrier could indeed solve the problem...will have a look into it

I got the same problem...maybe the gunk consists of condensed dust particles. A different problem: the feeding mechanism is extremely unreliable. Balls get stuck over and over at the marked position and block the feeding hole underneath. Any idea how to solve this problem? (the feeder rotates...

I use G1 on fh and bh now with a DHS PG5: Limba - Ayous - ALC - Ayous - ALC - A - L. Works good for me as the blade is quite flexible, which is balanced by the moderately hard sponge of G1 (at amateur level of course).

Here's my construction...one wooden board (EUR 10,--), rubbers (8x7 EUR), attached to a cymbal stand (new 28,--, used 10-15,--) with a multi clamp and a mounting plate for a drum module (together 29,--). Big advantage of using a multi clamp: the board is infinitely adjustable.

I also got two sheets, red and black, but they are exactly the same weight.

I'm playing with hybrid rubbers since 1,5 years, my experiences (always cleaning with water only, always using protection film, from time to time using Revolution No 3 rejuvinator) Rakza Z: excellent durability, the red ones are even more durable than black ones; my first sheets are 1,5 years...
