The next bowling ball you make with the epoxy resin I would recommend putting a variety of colors in it but cover up the finger and thumb holes before you pour the resin. You can use the other ball as a reference to drill the one you make.
How much did the ball weigh after you were done? Also , just curious did it crack or shown any signs of damage after use at the Bowling alley? Thanks, Just subscribed, awesome video!
@@timadamsart I think it costs more up front because you have to build the mold first. But once you do that, you can reuse it multiple times. I plan on making a ball for me and will be doing a similar process, but I'm gonna put a weight block in it. It will be a slow process buying and gathering up all the materials, but I'll be able to make one eventually.
@@timadamsart Will do. Did you use casting epoxy or tabletop epoxy? Just for starters, I'm going to make a completely clear ball first, and am wondering which epoxy I need to use. I'm assuming I will have to pour the epoxy into the mold in layers like you did here, but since it will be clear, will that result in visible pour lines in the final product or no?
This ball weight is 2,2 pounds 5.8kg⚖️. So this is the amount of Epoxy we used. We used the Epoxy from MR. Boat, but if I need to make this again I would use Clear Epoxy. Search for the one you you can pour deep at once 👉amzn.to/34juEex
I want to make a solid hemisphere that it 8" in diameter. This might be perfect. I tried concrete but it was a bit too crumbly after a lot of use. I cant tell from your video what Mr. Boat product you used and the website shows lots of different types. Can you tell me more specifically what you used? Thanks.
With the experience we have now, I would just choose a deep pour. For the bowling ball we used an Epoxy where you can only pour 3cm at a time. So you have a lot of layers. We now only work with the 10cm Resion Epoxy from Polyestershoppen and we really like it. Product links in the description of each Epoxy video.
The bowling balls you get at the bowling alley when you go bowling with your friends don't have a special center. We were more concerned about whether it was possible to make a bowling ball from Epoxy and whether it works on the court.
Hey guys! Great job 😍 now I will try that on my very own for sure :) can you tell me what kind of epoxy you used (shore hardness) and how heavy the finished product was? Thanks a lot :)
Weekend Builders, Guff UK reposted a short version of your video to their Facebook page on Jan 11th. Can you find out what the name of the song they put over it is?
Does anyone have a good idea what we can do with our bowling ball? destroy it, blow up or?
No!! I think you should definitely keep its not worth destroying it when you spent so much effort on it
Bowl with it?
Can I buy the bowling bowl

I’m happy this exists.
That looked like a fun project and we love the gold color.
It was fun to make and we were amazed at how well we could throw him on the bowling allay🔮
Watch the "how it's made" episode on bowling balls. I had no idea so much went into it.
We watched it, pretty nice to see how they make them🔧
This is incredible!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah, we really enjoyed making this and seeing that it really works😄
Amazing! ❣️
Thanks😃
Looks like it kinda has the shape of an egg instead of a ball.
You all should build a CAT-apult or a trebuchet and fling it as far as you can! That would be really cool! Great video as always guys!
thanks😁 But these projects are too big for now haha
It really works o my i could make bowling balls constantly
😂#weekendbuilderschanginglives
4:06 ahahaha 🤣👍 Great job you two! Ohh & the Kitty Cat too!
Thanks!! Yeah it’s a really cool cat😸
Mine would be clear and have something inside for the core and weight
Then make a second one with natural glow in dark coloring
Sounds really cool!!!
Great job guys, very interesting for me. Keep going☺
Hi, you subscribed on our holiday I guess? Thanks😉
I could do this every time and have so many bowling balls and sell them for like 20 to 30 dollers
Succes haha!!!
epoxy must be very cheap where you live.....
How much did the ball weigh after you were done? Also , just curious did it crack or shown any signs of damage after use at the Bowling alley? Thanks, Just subscribed, awesome video!
Thanks for the Sub👍This ball weight is 2,2 pounds 5.8kg⚖️. na het bowlen was er niks, geen scheurtjes of deukjes te zien op de bowlingbal zelf👌
This has already been done. Balls made of epoxy in the early 90s with a core were tried and never caught on.
Nice, we didn't know that, and for us it was a single project!
@@timadamsart Would have been interesting to see the ball thrown more.
Do you mean broken
Would love to see one made with a core in it. How much did it cost you, materials and all, to make this?
It's really expensive to make this ball, but the weight is 2,2 pounds 5.8kg⚖️.

@@decadude8968 Yeah that's true, if you like sent us a pic on insta @weekendbuilders when your ball is finished😁

Try to make one with core next!!! Very cool video! we
Thanks😁 Maybe we'll ever make another bowling ball from another material!
Try Polyurethane lol
How much did it weigh?
The weight is 2,2 pounds 5.8kg⚖️.
This is absolutely amazing!! How much does that bowling ball weigh and how much was the cost of the epoxy kit you used for this?

I should have the same idea
I want to make a clear one with resin, and insert a balloon dog figure. I was hoping I could find a mold already made
Wonder if it'll hook as much as a reactive ball
Do you think you could use a cardboard box
If you can make a mould out of a cardboard box? Good question, maybe if you strengthen it a little.
Why couldnt it be shinning as usual epoxy cover.
Is it possible to make the same bowling ball but transparent and shinny like a shinning glass ?
Yes, thats possible. You can try it if you want😜
Good success
Thanks Jose👍
@@timadamsart can i do the same idea as you did?
You want to make this bowling bal 🎳! Suc6💪
@@timadamsart yeah I wish but I would work at the bowling ball factory
Awesome! Love your energy! How much did the bowling ball (epoxy) weigh by the way?
Thanks Rob! I just weighed the bowling ball and he weighs 2,2 pounds 5.8kg⚖️
Weekend Builders nice!! What a cool idea and thanks for the links for those products!

Did you think of putting a center in it that allowed it to be more consistent with a real bowling ball?
The bowling balls you get at the bowling alley when you go bowling with your friends don't have a special center. We were more concerned about whether it was possible to make a bowling ball from Epoxy and whether it works on the court.
With color you choose I will mix colors
That will be very interesting😜
I now
Funny thing bowling ball says what are you doing to me in tell us see another bowling ball that was him😂
Buy a bowling ball and make a nother epoxy bowling ball and mix colors
And then sell the bowling ball you make you will get money
how heavy?
This ball weight is 2,2 pounds 5.8kg⚖️.
How much Epoxy does it take to make a bowling ball?
It's really expensive to make this ball, but the weight is 2,2 pounds 5.8kg⚖️. I don't know the price because we get the materials sponsored😉
Came out real nice. Can you make me a red, black, and white one that is 6lbs.
Our first order😁
Hey guys! Great job 😍 now I will try that on my very own for sure :) can you tell me what kind of epoxy you used (shore hardness) and how heavy the finished product was? Thanks a lot :)
Hi thanks, we really like making this project😁. The weight is 2,2 pounds 5.8kg⚖️ and we used the normal Epoxy not the clear Epoxy.
It has to be super light bowling ball, could you make it to have more weight? Maybe forming the ball around a small but heavy object?
It's really expensive to make this ball, but the weight is 2,2 pounds 5.8kg⚖️
@@timadamsart
Thanks for the info 👍
How heavy is it?
The weight is 2,2 pounds 5.8kg⚖️
How can you make it heavier
the bowling alley is AMF
How much does it weigh
The weight is 2,2 pounds 5.8kg⚖️
@WeekendBuilders if it's only 2 pounds, how come it went through pins so well. I only see 12- 14 pound balls do that
Can I buy the bowling bowl
Unfortunately this bowling ball doesn't exist anymore he went through the high pressure press😅, see video th-cam.com/video/VwfDqDosl9M/w-d-xo.html
Weekend Builders, Guff UK reposted a short version of your video to their Facebook page on Jan 11th. Can you find out what the name of the song they put over it is?
I will asked them the song for you!
@@timadamsart thank you!
Can you epoxy a wedding cake ? So that you could keep forever !
That’s a cool idea👌
I would not recommend to throw it 18 mph it might crack
Epoxy is a really strong material, you didn't even see a crack or crack after throwing it💪
Wonder if you can get a strike out of that bowling ball? That’s one of lightest ball I heard
Yes it's possible, Ana almost did it haha. The bowling ball weighs 2,2 pounds 5.8kg⚖️
U should take lessons on how to bowl
Haha🎳, no time for that! We need to make more videos😁
Too bad it doesn't have a core. .
Poor cat, he can’t be survive in this bag
haha he love the bag😀
All that work for a house ball lol... don’t get me wrong it’s cool seeing the process
Yes indeed a lot of work but very cool to make and test if it works😁
Lekker gewerkt pik!
Het was veel werk, maar het eindresultaat mag er zijn!
