Now everyone's waiting for two procrastinators to upload their videos.

It's uploaded but still processing. Hope youtube didn't kill the quality TOO much, it was already pretty bad after running it through WMM and then finalizing the video. Ever single step I take makes the quality worse, so I suggest HQ atleast.

Very Impressive IMO, the baseballs are very similar to the real thing, and it probably is harder b/c it isn't smooth. The gap is a good plus as well, as the baseballs all look to have more of a distance than the real thing. I'm very impressed Mr. Light.

Thank ya. It took freaking forever to build because I honest to god didn't own a working drill. I had to crank those screws/bolts into the baseballs, and then into the wood...
Took all day, and I was sore for a good week afterwards.
BTW, the music is from Naruto if anyone is wondering. Pretty much all music I use and will use in my videos will be from Naruto, or Musashi in general.

Nice job, Badalight. Looks like fun to climb around on. Hopefully, the pain will go away once your hands get acostumed to climbing around on them. Have you tried it holding your arms at a 90 degree angle? Because when I had my 3 little globes in my basement rafters, it was a lot easier to transfer between them with my arms at a 90 degree angle.

Have you tried it holding your arms at a 90 degree angle? Because when I had my 3 little globes in my basement rafters, it was a lot easier to transfer between them with my arms at a 90 degree angle. Yes I have tried that. It doesn't hurt as bad doing that, but since my globes are further apart it's a bit tougher to reach them that way. The technique I've come accustomed to is this almost dead hang one shown in the video though, it's just what suites me best, maybe other people like the 90 degree thing better. My hands are healing, and once they are fully healed I'll have plenty of calluses, which is good.

Calluses aren't always good, you know. They tend to get pinched a lot, which hurts worse than when you have baby hands (in my opinion). That video... was very nice. Good job. Honestly.

Thank you.
Personally I like calluses more, but that's just me.
I know what you mean by the pinching though, the sole reason I fail my cliffhanger is because of the callus on my pinky.

lol, I don't have a globe grasp! This is my latest video (even though I know you've seen it): I filmed, edited, and uploaded it in like 2 hours. It's only 45sec though and definately nothing special lol. But, I still did it.

I think next on my to build list is the salmon ladder.
Though, I don't really have the money or skill to build one out of wood.
Does anyone think it'd be a good idea to just drill screws at the right measurments and angles into 2 parallel trees?
I don't see why it'd be much different as long as my measurments were right, if I can save time and money and still have it be accurate I might aswell.
Also, I'm thinking of doing a 100$ project which will be probably 3-4 obstacles.
Rumbling Dice, spider Walk/Jumping Spider, Pipe Slider (or wood slider) and perhaps jumping bars

The screws/bolts drilled into trees won't be exactly the same. The Salmon Ladder has a very unique feel to it and I don't think that will recreate it perfectly.
If you're tight on money, I recommend only building the current obstacles that worry you the most.
