Thanks Slash. I have a new black rubber hanging curtain that I am playing around with but I hadn’t thought about the dock curtains behind them. You should post a vid on YouTube showing them in action.

On my basement alley I used 2 cut black rubber floor mats as pit curtains with plastic ‘dock curtains’ behind them. The ‘dock curtains’ are a rubber material used on truck docks at warehouses to keep the heat in/out while the bay is open. They sell it at home depot. That combination should be heavy enough to stop those candlepin balls you’re using. It works on my full scale 1/2 lane really well, even when someone throws a fast ball.

Thanks for the kind words, John.
If this life thing would stop interrupting me I could actually finish this project.

I visited your blog and enjoyed it very much. Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment.

Wow, I just found your blog and can’t wait to read the other entries. However I should probably do it in my off time.

I have always wanted to put lanes in somewhere to use for fun. I know the owner of a local center that closed down, and he put two lanes in a barn by his house. Spent a boat load on it I am sure.

Anyway, I am happy I stumbled into this blog.
