    Ive always wanted a Plinko board. Now my elem school needs one and I'm going to make one! Thanks for this awesome explanation!

    My husband and I added a washer between each reflector before sealing them together. This gave them needed weight. We also wrapped each puck in a silicone wrist band (with our organizations logo). This made them bouncy and made it much easier for the puck to navigate the pegs without getting stuck!

    Thank you. We are having a festival at our church around the time of October my booth is the The Price is Right Pinko game. I love the show and I thought plinko game was built exceptionally easy and very talented. I may even be able to build it myself. Thank you for the idea.

    I'm so thankful for this video! Made a Plinko board that's pretty similar. My only real issue was cutting the dowels with a miter saw... splintered and flew all over the place. Ended up buying 1/4" x 2-1/4" wooden dowel pins. Still waiting for them to arrive, so it's not 100% complete. Also waiting on the reflectors too - genius disc idea! Thanks so much!

    Hi there! First, I would like to send a big thanks for this video! . . And secondly, I was hoping you could help me with an issue I have after making this. . I followed your Plinko to a "tee" . . And it turned out GREAT with one exception. . The "plinko chips" sometimes STOP about half way down and get stuck on the dowels. . . Any suggestions?

    • @LifeLessOrdinary
      @LifeLessOrdinary  2 роки тому

      Hmmmmm the only way they would stop is either it’s tilled too much or the space between the dowels is off in that area of the board. We have used it several times now and that’s never happened. I’m glad the video helped you and I hope you get it figured out.

  • @tilasole3252
    @tilasole3252 2 роки тому +1

    Awesome tutorial. Explained it very well. Only question I have is, do peg boards come with smaller/many more holes for the same size board? And if so, do dowel rods come thinner than 1/4 inch to fit such a board? Thank you.

      @LifeLessOrdinary  2 роки тому
