Question:

Urethane Bowling Ball or Resin?

Ive been bowling with a plastic ball for about 2 years. Im trying to step my game up a little bit and put hook on the ball. My local bolwing alley owner says I should get a urethane ball, but there are so few to choose from. I was wondering if a low hook potential resin ball would still be ok. I was either looking at the Brunswick Power groove- resin or the Brunswick Groove- urethane ball. Also should I get the same weight ball as my plastic spare ball?

Answer:

Gas is safe as long as you don't leave it turned on.And you can also expect some what lower utility bills using gas.Make sure the gas is off when not in use,example check stove eyes and make sure they are turned completely off when not in use.
They (plumbing fitting foundrys) make an adapter fitting that is designed for exactly this purpose. If the length of PVC pipe is between two pieces of cast you'll need two (one for each end). The fitting will go together with no-hub bands (very common when working with cast iron) so youll need one of those for each adapter also. horizontal or vertical will not matter. Measure the gap after removal of the old pieces/parts and subtract the 'make up of the fittings (the length of the adapters less the hub for each or just the one adapter however the case may be) also good idea to cut PVC pipe a bit short maybe 3/8 easier to fit it back in. and assemble the fittings to the PVC pipe with primer (purple is better) and PVC cement (gold label, not yellow or red) the no hub bands have a rubber and a metal part. Best to slide the no-hub bands on the cast and slide the metal part on and past the no hub band, so the metal is out of the way. Then fold the rubber back on its self then slide the PVC in and fold the rubber down on to the adapters. Then slide the metal into place and tighten the clamps. (the metal can be opened up all the way by lOosening the clamps completely and fitting the metal over after the rubber is in place- this is usually a good idea for the top joint because the metal can be frustrating falling down in the way while attempting to fold the rubber back over the adapter)
