Beautiful job! We would build one. In fact we plan to make them for our adult sons for Christmas this year. Thanks so much for such a great video. If it’s not asking too much can you tell me what the dimensions of your wood pieces. We probably won’t put the score rod on so just the wood🙏🏼😊
The sizes are in the video but here you go, the bottom is square I cut the length same as the width I think I used a 10" wide board. The center pole is about 12 inches and the top bar was just shy of double the bottom width at 19 inches. Hope that helps!
FFS just get on with the build; we can work out what we need as the build progresses. First five minutes of absolute garbage. For those interested in building this game just skip to the 12 minuite mark and you will realise what and how to make it. Not rocket science.
Thanks! I really appreciate the comment. One of my goals is to show how to build fun projects with the minimal tools you may have. My first project I had to borrow my roommates jigsaw and I'm slowly acquiring the basic tools as I go. It's frustrating watching a how-to video and not have any of the equipment they use. I'm going to keep trying to use the basics, it's so hard when you get new power tool toys. :-)
Hi! It really depends on how hard or easy you want to make it. I found between 1-2 inch rings work fine. I bought mine at one of the local big box home supply stores. Like Lowes, Home Depot or Menards. I hope this helps. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment.
That's awesome! The one I built for the video is still on our patio and used every time we company. It's really a simple fun gift you can make. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment!
Hi Nancy! I don't make my projects to sell. There are quite a few companies that make something like this for sale. Here is the link to a highly rated one on Amazon: bit.ly/3jopvu7 Hope that helps!
That's awesome! It's a fairly simple project and such a fun game. I think the next game I'm going to make is folding corn hole boards. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment!
Help!!!! I just made this amazing game, but I have a problem!!!! When I assembled it every time I toss the ring it hits the bottom of the base and so therefore does not ever let it ctch the ring. I tried adjusting the string but if I adjust so that it doesn't hit the base then it cannot reach the hook. Please help as I am trying to give this as a gift to my son-in-law. Thank you in advance!!!!!!
Thanks for the comment sorry for the delay I was filming my next video over the weekend! Make sure your center pole is at least 12.5 inches tall and top bar is 18 inches long. If your top bar is tool long your string will hit the bottom. Before you disassemble try moving o-ring on the top bar where you attach the string in towards the center pole. Then adjust the string length. If that works then you just have to shorten your top bar. Hope this helps! Thanks for watching and that's so cool you made it as a gift!
It really depends, smaller makes the game harder. I just used the middle-size ones. They are called cup hooks. These are like the ones I used: www.lowes.com/pd/Hillman-Steel-Cup-Hook-8-Pack/1000037635
About an 1 to 1.5 inches from the bottom base. My build in the video is 1 inch. The higher you put the ring the harder it is to hook it. Hope that helps!
Merci pour le compliment! Je suis content que la vidéo te plaise ! J'adore les faire ! Merci d'avoir regardé! (google translate) / Thank you for the compliment! I'm glad you liked the video! I love making them! Thanks for watching!
Thanks! My channel is kind of a response to how-to videos that basically show you things in real-time and I don't have time for that! lol. I have plenty of projects planned, you can see in the discussion area of the channel the list. ua-cam.com/users/DIYXplorerdiscussion The next game is cornhole/bags boards that are foldable for storage and transportation. I put out a video once a month. Thanks again!
Thanks for the complement! When you build it come on back and post a link to a photo I'd love to see how yours turned out. If I get enough photos I'll feature them in a video of builds people made from watching the channel.
That's awesome! That's about the time it took me for my 3rd one I built for a friend. And no worries about the photo I'm just happy you made one from watching the video. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the feedback, the video I did afterward did just that. I may go with a hybrid highlighting key tools or supplies you may need. I agree it was a little long.
Not trying to hate. But up and down is PLUMB not Level. Plus if you need a drill press rig to drill a straight hole through a ¾in or 1½ you may need more practice. Other then your overkill, Nice job.
You are right! I grew up in a carpenter family I remember my father using the term plumb. I will make sure I am correct going forward. I ended up being a computer guy and just getting into building things so a bit of a newb but part of this channel is learning as I go. And I do need more practice drilling through straight holes! The drill rig was a fun tool that I plan on using for future projects and it was much less of an investment than a full drill press. Thanks for the corrections, I never take it as hate. And thanks again for watching!
We hope you enjoy this video we had fun doing it. After watching would you build something like this or just buy it? Leave a response in the comments!
I don't have any woodworking tools. It would probably be cheaper to buy one already built instead of buying all the tools to build it yourself.

@@DIYXplorer You’re awesome!! Thanks so much for taking the time to reply. Sorry I missed the dimensions in the video.

Nice, so easy but so awesome! Totally building this for my boys. Great video to, keep it up!
Thanks so much! I had fun building it!
I will probably build one!
Great video!
Greetings from Portugal 👊🏻🇵🇹
Thank you! Glad you liked it! Greetings from Nashville, TN USA!
Wow! Great job! I made a video building one of these as well on my channel!
Nice build, good to see a DIY build without a lot of power tools

Hello! What are the sizes of the rings you are using? Inner diameter and thickness

I think its great, I would buy
Making one! Thanks for the video!
Love it! Sending this video to my husband to Make
Thanks! I can tell you it's a hit when we entertain at our house. Friends and family don't like playing against me because I've got too good. lol
👌
This looks like a really fun project!
It was fun and super easy to do. I made several and gave them away as gifts! Thank you for watching!
I'll have to build about 20 of them for Christmas alone lol
That's awesome! The one I built for the video is still on our patio and used every time we company. It's really a simple fun gift you can make. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment!
HOW MUCH TO BUY FROM YOU?
Hi Nancy! I don't make my projects to sell. There are quite a few companies that make something like this for sale. Here is the link to a highly rated one on Amazon: bit.ly/3jopvu7 Hope that helps!
Nice video. I will be building one soon.
I made 4 for my children as a Christmas gift.

You could also try to put a bevel cut on the end of the base where it hits with your miter saw.
great video!
I'm glad you enjoyed it! More fun videos coming!
Build
Always DIY
What size were the cup hooks? Thanks!!

How far up from the bottom is the cup hooks
About an 1 to 1.5 inches from the bottom base. My build in the video is 1 inch. The higher you put the ring the harder it is to hook it. Hope that helps!
This is great! Going to make one soon!
Vidéo très bien fait! Merci

My local pub is getting this game weather they like it or not
You took the words out of my mouth! I am about to do the same thing! 😂
@@DIYXplorer you, me... . The same.
😂😂😂 Think I'm going to try a single sided one that is perfect for a bar top.
will build it you make it look easy
Thanks for the complement! When you build it come on back and post a link to a photo I'd love to see how yours turned out. If I get enough photos I'll feature them in a video of builds people made from watching the channel.
@@DIYXplorer thank for response i built it last night 1.5hrs made from bits from a bunk bed not really ofay with posting links to photos etc sorry
That's awesome! That's about the time it took me for my 3rd one I built for a friend. And no worries about the photo I'm just happy you made one from watching the video. Thanks for watching!
Great vid!
Thanks! It was a fun project that is really accessible for anybody to create.
List the tools and supplies in the description or something. Video is way too long before getting to the build.
Thanks for the feedback, the video I did afterward did just that. I may go with a hybrid highlighting key tools or supplies you may need. I agree it was a little long.
This video could easily be 3 minutes long… dragged out way too much.

If you're going to be an ass correcting somebody, make sure you use the correct word. (other THAN, not other then)
