So some months ago I bought a spinner and well, things have "spun" a bit out of control. Interested to see your play areas too, here's mine:
Overview (those are my four balls that aren't in my bag up on the shelf, have another three as well...it's an addiction):

Here's the spinner inside the tub:

And here's the de-oiler I keep behind my bar (where else would you keep one, am I right?): http://i.imgur.com/V9njBC1.jpg

Let's see, I'd have a picture of a washing machine, 400,600 and 800 wet-or-dry paper, 3M Trizact paper equivalent to P2000, Meguires ultimate polish, my daughter's blow dryer, a flexible ruler, a grease pencil, dollar store degreaser and a cereal bowl to set a ball in. And microfiber rags.
Not too exciting.

Thanks!
No I don't layout or drill my own equipment. I actually drive about an hour one-way to a shop I really love.
I use the armadillo to check my own PAP after/if I change something significant with my mechanics; but mainly use that and the prosect tool as a teaching aid with some of the people I coach when they start asking about PAP, dual angle layouts, etc.
I'm going to a Jayhawk seminar this year and hope to be drilling balls for our junior bowlers after I get some actual certification.

And I should add, I got that armadillo and prosect tool for like $50 shipped...like new. It was a steal!

I don't have a bowling cave - I have a beer brewing cave. I leave the bowling stuff to the pro shop.

No, don't do any plugging. Really haven't had a need too. I've done some simple patches that's about all. Resurfacing, replacing inserts and deoiling.
