Making a Ball Pit! Support the cause


So it’s been a really long time since I posted anything. Its probably because I have been really busy with my life. Some new things to update. I bought a condo. So its been crazy for a month getting all the paperwork, and dealing with a mortgage and rates and stuff like that. So I moved into my place Nov 13th! The place is legit! I still have a lot of work to do. I need to get some coffee tables, night stands for my room, and possibly a bedframe thing. Now onto the main reason for posting…

As most of you might have heard, I am making a ball pit room for my place. If you know me, I’ve been wanting to create a ball pit room for years now. Now that I have my own place, where I can set the rules, I am 100% making a ball pit room.

I have been doing some research on ball diameters and measurements for the room. So far it seems like I will need 3k balls to make a decent sized pit. The balls are 80mm in diameter and have about 67 balls per cubic foot. This means to fill the space, I will need a lot of balls. I plan to have a couple air mattresses as the base, so people don’t hit the floor when diving in. This will take up about 1 foot in height. I want the overall height of the pit to be about 3 feet. That is the size of the gate and will allow you to easily be able to jump into it. Boxes of balls cost around $100 and contain 500 balls. It’s going to be quite expensive. A few of my friends are psyched that I am actually going to do this, and want to help me out. So I’ve created a donate button through paypal, so those people can put there money were their mouth is.

The goal is to open the ball pit for my new years party. Donations would be greatly appreciated but there are no obligations. I’m pretty sure the donations can be anonymous if you wanted. That said, here is the donate link below.
