Good info from Austin TX on basket installation.
Let us hope that the whores of evil no longer loiter on the doorsteps of your path beckoning you into the brothel of despair, and that here and after may present them with the most rigid manistfestation of a firm and manly will.

Wow - that is nearly impossible to steal w/o a Bobcat! Very impressive. Thanks for the info Shawn!

Does anyone think we should re-install any of the baskets at BEvier?

jim

Baskets that are set in 5-gallon buckets of cement and set with anchor and collar are fairly easy to steal. 2 ways: either cut the pole at ground level or dig up the whole assembly.

Shawn's proposed schematic looks pretty permanent!

I was just thinking If we do alternates for some of the new holes this is the way to go.  Since we have the baskets themselves cemented in, it would take alot of work to redo them.  We re-installed everyone at Parkside so that we could move them around.  I wanted to use the plan that is shown here, but ......



So I was thinking for the new course that we are installing, if the park district can make us up some of these ideas.  We don't have to use all of the ideas, but inner pole and welding the basket as one is a great idea as well as the anchor supports.  Good stuff..  When I talked to the guy that gave me the sketches, they were losing a basket a month and now that they redid all of them like this, not a single one is missing.  Some vandalism, but at least none missing.

Wow, that sure is one detailed schematic (ok, TWO detailed schematics!)



question...is this intended for catchers that are not cemented?  It seems pretty hard (and like you'd need the aforementioned bobcat) to remove a cemented-in catcher, what is this design intended for?



if anyone needs help installing or constructing these, let me know..I have skills in both construction from schematics, as well as installing from design...let me know....
