Great vid! I watched looking for some tips on making a cornhole board, I ending making both. Spent more time playing with the bolas. Thanks for making our 4th of July a little more special.
I made this pvc ladder game today. I bought 3/4” pvc in 2’ sections at Lowe’s. I used a hand saw to cut the 8 one foot sections needed. Drilling a hole in the golf balls was more difficult. The drill bit smoked and I really had to press to push it through. Hot bits of rubber popped out. After painting the rungs and putting it together I tested my skills. I could only wrap the top rung, must practice!
Hey Deborah, sounds like you had a successful build aside from the golf balls! I wonder if you were using a dull bit or not because when I Drilled mine they were fairly easy to do so. Using the clamp really helps in keeping your hand and fingers always from those hot pieces and the drill bit for sure. Hope you enjoy the game though!
Penalty Box Woodshop the tip about the clamps to hold the golf balls was super helpful. Took the game down to a friends barn and showed them how to set it up. The two 12 year old boys started playing immediately. Thanks again - and as a non handy person this was simple to make. Will put new sharp drill bits on my list for Christmas. Never even thought thought that 50 year old bits would be dull...ha! Learned a lot from you. Have subscribed to you - please include more very basic tips for those of us who have no idea what we are doing but want to try 🤪
Great video as always. Thank you for detailed instructions on both the builds as well as the game play. I've been meaning to make a set of corn hole boards. The fire has been lit for that along with the golf game! Happy 4th! #stayhealthy #staysafe
Okay. How did you know this is going to be my next project? And did I see you using your left hand? One more thing. I made a corn hole set using a 6” hole saw once. The hole saw won.
Really like the natural look on those JP! How do you like that 6” Bosch? I have the 5” and like that but wonder how the 6” stacks up, other than the extra inch.
Yea they are pretty heavy but I just liked the stability of the 3/4”. But, 1/2” may do just fine, I really don’t do these much so You probably know more than me on that. Tops are not that bad. Less slick than I thought they would be
And another thing. Best use I’ve seen of a Top Flite golf ball.
Hahaha No doubt!!!! Top Rock!
Great project with the kids! Let us send you some varnish for your next project!
Thanks and bring it on!
Great video JP. Love that you got the shop helper to give you a hand.
Thanks as always, Sam! You make some amazing boards my friend so means a lot from you!

Haha thanks Deborah! I will keep that in mind in my future projects for sure!
Good job the only thing I would add is a handle for easy carrying for me.
I absolutely agree! I meant to add that in there but completely forgot! Thanks!

Thanks Tony! They are really easy if you just stick to the basics of the build! Hope that golf game is going well!
What was the pocket hole setting on the jig and what size screws did you use for the frame to the 3/4" plywood?

😂😂😂😂😂 some time those hole saws win! Hahah. Thanks man!
LOL!!

Thanks Bill! This one is actually the 5” but it’s still an absolute beast!👊👊👊
An inch smaller is always welcomed, said no lady ever. Hi Bill. :)
@@smvaldivia haha Thanks for chiming in there, Sammy
What kind of ply did you get? I made a board once and it had veneer on it and started chipping.
It’s was an oak vaneer ply. Where did it start chipping? Edges?
Your corn hole boards are heavy. We use 1/2” plywood and 1” boards. A lot lighter. Just my two cents. Also I bet your tops are very slick.
