Hi! This was a summer project I created called "Strawbox Lanes." The
kids, as well as the adults love to bowl on my lanes. I am thinking
about making a chute/ramp to launch the bowling ball. It might make
difficult shots a little easier.

I'd hate to be the pin setter!



I should have included a picture of the rack with the original post.
It only takes about 15 seconds to load and set the pins. Pretty nifty eh?

That beats the stepping on the lever to raise the centering pins and
then placing the bowling pins on the centering pins 4 at a time (2 in
each hand), which I did for a while back in the early 50's. Nice job.


I always wondered what the hole on the bottom of the pin was for. Now it
all makes sense. Thanks Bill!
