When I build my house when I get older, I'm putting a mini bowling lane in it. This tutorial looks perfect.

My neighbor build his house! He bought the property and starting buying lumber and started building and then got it approved by the city and town to do it

@kyahrose5261 6 лет назад

That is so cool! Man, every bowler's dream right here....to have a bowling lane in their house that they can practice bowling on. (Or at least it's mine. ^_^) If money wasn't an problem, I would buy a house with enough space in the back yard to attach a hallway leading off from the main house to a separate building / room large enough for 4 regulation bowling lanes. That would be epic, I think.

@BraedanBrennaman 6 лет назад

Yes! Would love to have a regulation bowling lane at home one day. Or own a bowling center.

@Bulderme 6 лет назад

@trevorc3063 5 лет назад

@Tyler Neal 60 feet from foul line to headpin, ~62 feet, 10 inches from foul line to the very end of the lane

@watchingcarsdriveonovals 3 года назад

You can do that, You should make a green house above it so rain or branches don't brake it.

@josephh5085 3 года назад

So I ended up here after looking for a skee ball machine for my basement. That got me thinking to how cool it would be to have a bowling alley in my house, which led to searching for mini bowling alley's, which ultimately got me here! This is so simple yet ingenious! While it may seem tedious to manually set the pins, this is the most inexpensive, yet effective, way to have a quality set up. Nice job!

@Umadbro681 11 месяцев назад

You can also use rope attatched to the device and laid out to the front of the lane to have a system where you don't need to run back and reset. Or if you're really inclined, going a little mechanical could make it push button pretty easily. Did you ever build one?

@smallbee1234 3 года назад

Very clear and well explained on how you made this bowling alley. Just a few engineering tweaks on the pinsetter and it would be ideal for a one-person game.

@jessediaz7395 4 года назад

@MichiganPeatMoss 2 года назад

Feb 2022: Nice job! - Something I did on a much simpler scale in 1977 with plastic pins found at toy stores on my dad's shuffleboard. My buddy and I rigged up a drop-shield and ball return, but manually operated. Been a project on my mind for billiard-ball scale and automated system since then! Maybe some day to full completion. LOL

@lacytaylor5784 5 лет назад

I just wanted to Thank you for this video. I was able to build my lane from this tutorial. I did my pinsetter different. I built mine from the side to maximize my lane . I would have had no clue where to start without this video. I made a how to ,showing how I did mine and posted it to help others if they are looking to build a lane. I gave you props at the end of my video. Thanks again!

Hi Braedan. Thank you for the good ideas. What diameter and weight miniballs would you recommend for casual-for-fun bowlers building a lane about the size of yours?

@xsplend1d870 4 года назад

So do you have to hand rack everything

@jackgholson6505 5 лет назад

I checked the description ;) :o

@dammitbobby283 3 месяца назад

Add a heavy fishing line to the top of the pin and feed it through the pin rack and then add a button where you roll the ball down the lane to reset the pins. Do that extra work upfront and the bowling experience will be more enjoyable rather than manually resetting pins all day.

@sorb4425 4 года назад

We might build a 19 foot lane in our basement including the pin setter. Do you think this is long enough for a hook? Or just for bowling in general? We are also getting an automatic scoring system, we already have a spare tv that hands on the wall. We also are getting LED’s for the pin setter, and for the whole room just for some nice aesthetics

Hi Braedan, super cool setup you have here! I am trying to build one of my own now. Question on the scoring system...can you elaborate more on that? Does the ARDUINO run the open score software? Is the Logitech camera tied in with the arduino as well? What about the sensors? do you buy them separate and if so where? Sorry for the barrage of questions, this is really awesome!

@BraedanBrennaman 6 лет назад

Thanks! Awesome! Glad to hear more people are building lanes. I actually did videos on the scoring and went into more detail. Go to the playlist section on my channel then go to personal favorite videos. And both videos I did on the scoring are in there. Oh no! I forgot to link the infrared beans in the description. I'll look for them and if I find the link I'll comment it here

Thus is very cool and well done. What would be cool would be instead of the Storm facing make an old AMF triangle and illuminate it with cool white led lights.

@BraedanBrennaman 3 года назад

The scoring program I use has functionality to make a pin triangle work. So I might do it someday.

@pauposts 5 лет назад

For the surface, did you use a roll of laminate (so you could or are there seams in the laminate between each 8ft section? If you took the lane apart, would there also be natural breaks in the laminate flooring along the seams of the 8ft sections?

@BraedanBrennaman 5 лет назад

The original lane surface was broken into three sections. So there was a break in the laminate flooring in between each section. But awhile back we put a continuous layer overtop of the existing laminate flooring. So there is no loner a gap.

Ahh ok. Thanks for sharing your project Braedan. Great job on this.

@liyanaratmono9007 3 года назад

@gtjackets09 4 года назад

Did you have to clean your laminate before you bowled on it? I’m asking because I have built one similar to yours and I have to throw my ball significantly slower in order to generate any sort of decent hook. Any suggestions on how to improve the backend?

@BraedanBrennaman 4 года назад

I didn’t clean it. For me, I get less hook when I clean it. I’ve tried a few things with the surface to try and get more hook... nothing has worked so far.

@gtjackets09 4 года назад

Braedan Brennaman I put some heavy surface on the ball (400, 220 grit) with little effect! You might wanna give that a shot! Thanks for your help!
