April get information and video. I have built a couple sets of these and also the Chippo golf game. I found that 2×4’s and 3/4″ plywood make the game very heavy. But you were using scrap so you had limited choices. I have used 1×4 common or select pine for the frame and 2’x4′ sheets of 1/2 exterior plywood. You can buy them at most lumber stores. I put the frame together the same as you did with pre-drilled holes on the ends with exterior glue and wood screws. I attached the frame to the top using kreg screws, That way the top surface is clean. I use 1’x4′ pine for the legs and add a washer between the leg and frame. I also use a can of paint to mark the legs. I found the angle to be about 18 degrees. I add two latches on the ends to make a clam shell and a handle on top for easy carrying, the entire game weights about 37 pounds.. Love your show and can’t wait for your grand opening. Thanks for all you do!

In reply to redsilkvineyards.

Never mind my previous reply…my bad. I missed the instruction to place the leg pivot bolt 4″ down from the top…you can keep my payment. 🙂

Hi April,
Great idea…started building mine as soon as I saw your video and “bought” the plans. I think the plan may have a slight error in the cut angle for the leg. The plan shows a 30 deg cut which makes it very “pointed” vs. flush with the ground. I think the angle should be closer to 15.6 deg ~ 16 deg. The video seems closer to 16 than 30 deg.

If I’m wrong please ignore my comments and keep the money I paid to buy the plans, if I’m correct, please give me a full refund! LOL LOL

Good stuff, keep it up! 🙂
