After a few modifications Im pleased with the basket. It wont measure up to higher end practice baskets, but for the price it gets the job done.
Mod 1: Install the top part upside down. This gives you about a 22 target zone height.
Mod 2: Throw some extra chains on there. I used 135 Zinc Plated Steel Handy Link Chain. This very closely matches the chains that come with the basket. They also under 0.50 per foot. For the second ring I used coaxial cable cable ties.
Inner chains measure 18
Outer chains 24
note 2 chain is better to use, but is double the cost.
note longer inner chains may be better, maybe 20
Mod 3: Remove cross chains (only after adding more chain). To do this, I used pliers channel locks.
note the links removed from mod3 are what I used to attach the inner chains to each cross section on the top part. Channel locks help out a lot to bend back the links for your inner chains.
great with a few inexpensive modifications
