    DESCRIPTION:
    I wanted to build a putting green for my basement... but not just an ordinary putting green, I wanted to make it super cool with an automatic ball return system and even a lever-activated golf ball elevator where you can eject a new golf ball by pressing it with the head of your club. Overly complex? Uh... yeah, this is Fisher's Shop!

    small idea of adding a small sheet of metal under the grass. you could then make wood object with magnets recessed into the under side for bank shots.

    That transition to the actual video and audio was such a small touch but very much appreciated! Great video my friend!

    This is real woodworking. You can tell because his son aged three years since the opening shot, and his basement is now carpeted and finished. Great job!

      Learn the stroke and the next time you're on the green and everybody is falling all over themselves when you address the putt you will have the satisfaction of hearing their jaws hit the ground when it sinks.

    What if you added a sensor to count the amount of times you score, and make a whole electronic system to make it into a working game?

    I'm merely a novice hobbyist, at best, but you make this project seem reasonably achievable, and this would make an absolutely amazing project to give as a gift for my brother who is a big golfer and mini-golf enthusiast.

    No, you built the sidewalls so high coz 7-year old boy + golf club + indoors could lead unwanted damage otherwise!

    I was wondering where you had gone as we hadn't seen hide nor hair of you for a while. Gr8 to see you back on the scene again & looking forward to the next creation from the Nutty Professor.
    Take easy Drew and best wishes to you and your family.

    My favorite videos have clever concepts that are perfectly realized and hilariously executed. This video hits all the right notes. Great job! Loved the Happy Gilmore reference at the end too. I was thinking in my head "You sonofabitch ball..."...and then you chimed in with "Are you too good for your home?!" Made me laugh out loud. Thank you for the great video! Subscribed.

    • @FishersShop
      @FishersShop  6 років тому +1

      Haha! Yes! Just take off a flip flop, lol! I actually tried to think of how to add various grades but couldn't think of an overly complex way of doing it. For now I suppose just propping up the side or losing a flip flop will have to do. :) Thanks, Tharemy!

    Your kid is f’ing awesome!!! He’s like what’s the big deal. It’s nothing. Lol. Very cool video. Later on maybe you could even add on and setup and elevated string line. I’ve used something similar and it has helped a lot.

    It was a home made crazy golf course, and all i was waiting for was for you to make the windmill, ready to putt the ball through it and into the hole, well maybe your son to putt the ball ha ha ha.
    Brilliant one of your best builds yet.

    This is awesome. The only thing I would add would be a little momentary switch at the bottom of the channel that catches missed shots, and connect it to a speaker that plays some kind of sound effect, like the wrong answer sound on the price is right.
