Snuti is an invertible 3 pound drum spinner with armor made out of rounded 1/16 inch HDP. We chose a drum spinner design because we had heard that drum spinners have a relatively high success rate, and we chose to make our armor rounded because we wanted to see if it would take hits better than straight armor. Snuti's drum is roughly 1 pounds, and it spins up to 8,000 rpm.
