2 [.] form fitting hole located on the back of base assembly for pole to be inserted 4 [.] assembly includes alien screw and washer to secure the vertical adjustable pole . 5 [.] hole drilled in protrusion on front part of base assembly includes bolt , washer and nut to hold side pole 6 [.] side pole cut to size a molding is formed and attached at one end of the side pole to slide onto the adjustable pole 7 [.] hose clamp wraps around at the bottom of the molding to secure in place . 9 [.] holes on the side of pole to adjust to various height settings 10 [.] metal mechanism used to adjust pole upward or downward 11 [.] metal pipe fits over adjustable pole to stabilize the base assembly 12 [.] inner pole smaller in diameter to fit in vertical adjustable pole to increase the height of the pole 13 [.] hole drilled in the inner pole to hold the connector piece with assembly includes bolt , washers , circular spacers and nut 15 [.] spacer attached to inner pole behind the connector piece 17 [.] threaded hole drilled in the connector piece with a thumb screw to stabilize and suspend the tubular arc guide in the air 21 [.] hole drilled through the tube to connect to the connector piece 22 [.] connection piece molded at the end of tubular arc guide with a threaded hole drilled through to connect the second section 23 [.] hole drilled through the second tube to attach to the connection piece located at end of the first section 25 [.] connection piece molded at end of tubular arc guide with a threaded hole drilled through to connect the third section 27 [.] hole drilled through the third tubing to attach to the connection piece located at end of the second section 28 [.] metal hook inserted at the tip inside a circular molding the magic arc of includes a base - assembly that is made of lightweight rigid material . the top side of the base - assembly has a form fitting hole located on the back of the base . in front of the base there is a protrusion . there are two poles made of lightweight material that attaches to the base - assembly to form a solid frame for support . the pole is attached to the protrusion by drilling a hole through the protrusion to connect the pole with a bolt , washer and nut . the pole is to be angled to be perpendicular from the base - assembly . towards the top of the side pole it is cut to fit into a molding that slides onto the vertical adjustable length pole . the sturdy molding slides onto and around the vertical adjustable length pole , with a screw hose clamp attached around the bottom of the circular molding . the vertical adjustable length pole is inserted into the form - fitting hole , located on the back of the base - assembly . the adjustable length pole is secured to the base by an alien screw , located on the bottom of the base that screws into a threaded rod . the vertical adjustable length pole comprised of two poles . one pole is made slightly smaller in diameter to fit inside of the other pole . this allows the inner pole to adjust in height by sliding the metal mechanism that is attached to the inner pole . by pushing the metal mechanism inward and pushing the inner pole upward simultaneously into the various holes positioned on the side of the outer pole . attached to the top of the inner pole section of the vertical adjustable length pole is a connector made from rigid material . the connector is attached via holes drilled through the inner pole and the connector attached by a bolt , washer , circular spacers and nut . the inner pole can be modified by cutting a u - shape form that will allow the connector to be inserted . a hole must be drilled through the connector to house a thumb screw . inside the inner pole lie two spacers . the spacers are attached to both sides of the inner pole . attached to the connector on the vertical adjustable length pole is a tubular arc guide made from sturdy material , yet flexible in its application . the tubular arc guide is formed into the shape of an arc . each section has holes drilled on the end enabling thumb screws to attach all sections together by a connecting piece . at the end of the final piece of the arc guide is a metal hook that is inserted at the tip inside a circular mold . the metal hook attaches to the front of the basketball rim . to secure the base while utilizing the magic arc , a metal pipe has been cut to fit over and slide onto the adjustable pole . the metal pipe rest on the top of the base assembly located where the adjustable pole inserts into the hole . this enables the magic arc to remain stable on the ground while in use .
the purpose of the shooting aid is to provide the basketball player with a visual trajectory of the correct path from the free throw line to the basketball hoop . the unique tubular arc guide design offers the basketball player one of the most effective methods to increase their ability to make a higher percentage of free throws .
