So as mentioned I took prototype information from my new Thakeham tiles book and decided that the hopper could be sunk into the ground. Previously I had calculated that the ramp up to the hopper would have to be as steep as 1 in 9. This was just too much to be operational sound or believable.
Thus I dug a hole in the sundeala and sunk the start of the conveyor into the board. I then shortened the hopper and the result is a ramp that is about 1 in 16. Much better.
Now to make the ramp.
