- Batting cage diy backyard 40' cheap easy nice
local fence supply or box store will have the fittings and the one I used is not the only one that will work.

if you are going to angle your poles it is a very very very slight angle
That is an awesome cage setup. Nice work
Awesome set up !
Nice batting cage I like it
Looks like lots of fun, I’m curious if you concreted your poles in. I have 16 foot poles and I was thinking about driving them in the ground about 5 foot.
that is awesome
Si
How deep did you set your poles and did you set it in concrete?
sry for slow response. i don't know the name, just anything that will bolt that can be adjusted to the poles and hold the i bolt.
Sounds like you have done line work when you talking about leaving the poles laid back. I build power lines and we do the same as far as cheating a pole back when it’s not guyed.
What would you say was your total overall cost?
what is the name of the mounting brackets you used?
Is the net high enough for clearance? Looks like you need to throw a hundo to make it 50 ft.
That fitting that you use to connect the turnbuckle what is it called?
What size pipe/post did you use
Did you use any concrete
What were exact dimensions for the frame width and length? I have same size net and will be using same set up but Wood instead! Did you do 12ft wide with poles and exactly 40ft long
What is the clamp on the pole?
still cant find 112ft poles at any fence supply
So how much all together?
what is the diameter of the posts?
Did you have to pay extra for the left handed L-screen. Just kidding I’m not that dumb, but I figured someone had to ask.
Where you buy the net?
Amazon.. i thought there was a link. good luck
Where did you get the poles and how much did you pay?
Fence supply, it's been a while so I don't remember.
@@askerl1015 do you remember the being out expensive or cheap? Like $30 or $100
I went to Home Depot to get some poles but they only had 10 1/2’s. Where did you get the 12 foot poles? And when I get to 12 foot poles how deep should I bury them? 2 feet I’m guessing??
Got mine at fence supply place
I might have gone 2 to 3 ft deep
AskErl 101 thanks bud 👍
@@askerl1015 Did you put concrete in the holes by the pole to keep it sturdy, or could you get away with filling with gravel and sand?
What type of poles are they? Diameter, length?
14' poles
What size cable? 1/8?
Where did you get them. I cannot find 14 ft anywhere?
I would love to set up something like this for my son, a couple of questions. Can it be left out all year long and withstand the weather year round, and how do you go about trimming the grass on the inside of the cage?
i have left ours up since building it.. i pitched to my son just the other day.. the poles tend to pulled in if the ground gets really dry, but i just used some auger type anchors and small ratchet straps to straighten it up and pull the slack out.
OH, trimming is not fun, but doable.. i can just lift up with one hand and weed eat with the other..
What size post did you use?
I believe 2-5/8 × 12' tall
I think
What gauge?
at 40 ft, can you use a pitching machine? with real balls? or is it too close for the batter to react to
I do.. its a bit tight, if you can go longer, do it.
AskErl 101 ok thanks! would 48 ft be any more use or are you talking 55/60 length
You said cheap 5 times! How cheap was it?
Total about 440.00
AskErl 101 you can buy one not home made for that how is that cheap dumb ass 😂
400 ish with net and all..
@@bigal9424 tell me where you can get one with frame this size?
@@bigal9424 why so crass man? So emotional 😢
what gage of pole did you use?
