Re: pic: Homemade Orbit Ball! (White Paper Coming Soon)

We made 15-20 of the plastic only (like the 910 ball) balls tonight in 3 hours (me, another mentor, and about 4 kids). We are going to use those for human player training as they are more durabble than the toy and nearly identical size, weight,......

One thing we did a little different was 1 rivet, and then bonded the end of strips with special Polycarbonate glue.

Overall this I feel will be a very worthwhile exercise at least as practice balls for human players.

Thansk for posting the dimensions guys!

(p.s. if you have a sheer with a stop, you can make these much faster).
