Popular Post Wolfman1 Posted June 30, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Check out my new cornhole boards, I just finished them. I have always wanted my own set to practice on, especially when I get my ass handed to me at summer parties, but I didn't want to spend the time building them completely from scratch. This project is a culmination of a few different sources. The boards are Amish made and the top is one large vinyl printout of my design I had printed at a graphics shop. A few more things I added include three coats of UV rated poly, painting the underside to prevent moisture absorption, installed cabinet hardware to latch the legs in place when moving the boards, and I added handles to each board for easy carrying. Going to try and toss a few this weekend to see how they do! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2talltim Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Made me 2 sets several years ago. Sold one set for what I had into both of them. So kinda like getting the ones I kept for free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But somehow when we play nobody ever wins Thanks! That's funny, when I play at the family gatherings the game is over in a couple turns because everyone is so good at it. Started to get annoying, so I finally decided it was time to get my own set to practice on. Originally I was just going to buy a set on craigslist, but I haven't seen anything related to motorcycles besides a HD set here and there. That's when I decided to make my own design using the colors of my bike. I almost went with a Yamaha 50th anniversary theme using white, black, and yellow, but the checkered design would have been a little difficult to lay out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helmutt Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Those are the coolest boards I've seen yet. Thought about making my OSU boards into KTM/Kawasaki/Triumph race boards myself, just haven't done anything yet. Like yours a lot though. What did the decals cost you? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of a package deal with a guy who lives near me. He gets the boards from an Amish guy and then has a friend who is a graphics designer make the decals. He let me directly work with his graphics guy on my design and when they were printed he mounted them on my boards for me. I did all the finish work from there. All together with his costs and me doing the paint, poly, and hardware it was less than $200. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScubaCinci Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 How does that vinyl work on the top with playability (i.e. coefficient of drag on the beanbag). I've seen some where the damn bags slide off so easy, you really need to rainbow them so they drop more or less straight down on the board. I don't own a set myself but a lot of my friends have them so I play a fair amount at parties and stuff but I'm still only average because every board set is different and I can't hone a technique or I would be a much better player. I pitched softball for a lot of years so I generally have pretty good accuracy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I pitched softball for a lot of years so I generally have pretty good accuracy. I was told the good boards are the slippery ones. I sanded the poly down to get it smooth, so it will take some skill to drop them in. My dad's boards have a rougher surface and you constantly get a corn bag pileup at the hole. We will see how they play this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfman1 Posted July 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2016 Now I am official, I found a guy close to my work that builds custom tournament Cornhole scoreboards. He built this for me for only $23. The base is filled with sand, so it won't blow over and I now have a place for my drink! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
