Tether

Gravity keeps the time. You choose when to let go.

Set the line, watch it pull taut, and send one release rattling into the bucket.

A payload waits under a row of anchors. Choose one—or position a loose mount—attach, and let the line convert height into speed. One release sends the payload through any motes in its path and, if the timing is right, over the rim and into the bucket.

Every miss remains as a faint trajectory. The next attempt is not a reset of your knowledge—only of the line.
