Re: paper: HOW TO: Make Homemade Orbit Balls
After completing the first dozen or so balls, we have noticed that they seem substantially stiffer than the real balls. At some point, a decision was made to place the rivets at a slight diagonal in the overlapped space. Would that add the extra rigidity? Since we have predrilled the holes for all 100 balls, do you think it would be ok to use only one rivet per strip, or would we be compromising the durability of the balls? The rivet would be on one edge of the strip rather than centered.
Do the balls loosen up with time and play? We are making them for the pre-ship rally. Do you think it will impact the other teams if our balls are more rigid than the competition balls?
