Soft Toss Training Machine

Hello, in my class Engineering class for school we are suppose to make or improve something that is already out there. My partner and I are planning on designing a soft toss machine to help with hitting that can operate with just one person and go at their pace. If anyone wants to help, we could use help by taking this questionnaire:

Thank you all for your help.

I don't think you will get much help here. We are baseball umpires not coaches or players. That said, I am a retired structural engineer and my oldest son, Mark, Jr., is both a baseball umpire and a mechanical engineering major at the U of Toledo. I know that we both be interested in where you go to college and all about your engineering project.

P.S. Your questionnaire will not open.

One exists but have fun with your project.

Actually, all operate with one person. The Wheeler Dealer lets you adjust the toss and the timing.

Okay thanks Mr. Mark for the heads up. Try this link: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/126E...?usp=send_form

And we would gladly talk to both you and your son about college and our project. I'll Private message you my email.
