Ah. A frequent mistake I committed when I was building uber-HSes way back then. Make sure when your snapper's loaded, the extender's already facing the rear (relative to the baseplate). Rotating the extender relative to the ramplate messes things up.

Perhaps you could post an image to further clarify because I don't really understand it (it's very hard to explain this kind of stuff :)).

It's basically no matter what way you rotate the visible arm of the SnapperII, the secret attachment point will ALWAYS face the same direction once you go into the Test Lab and back out. It's better to mount the drivetrain and such on the secret AP, I think, because it's far easier to get the correct angle.

Ahh that explains a lot. So no matter what I rotate the Snapper II to the secret attachment point always resets to horizontal -  relative to the baseplate?

Exactly. Or whatever way you had the extender pointing when you attached it.
