Thanks for the tip on transferring the correct angle to the legs (after raising the end of the board 12") Many of the videos I have watched are not as clear at that step as yours - Thanks!

These are amazing - Will work well next to the smoker!

Nice video. Im looking to do something like this for my hubby. Suggestion, what about putting some sort of latch on the sides. That way you could put the boards together and carry them, or even using the piece from the hole to close it back it. That way you could store the bean bags inside.

This is the first I've seen where the plywood is sitting within the box frame instead of on top More ways to make a cornhole board than to skin a cat . Love seeing them all. Very creative and imaginative finding that finding that bottle cap to make your hole👏👏👍. Definitely does help to remember some trigonometry, and the Pythagorean to cut out the legs for the right length and miter the ends. That way you wouldn't have to try and prop the board up first and measure, but understandably not many people are going to be able to do that unless they are fresh out of taking Trig in school or study it in their daily lives.

I didn't want to have the plywood edges visible from the side so thought this was a good idea to hide them. And yeah, math isn't the strongest for me so propping it up was the way to go.

What do you think about using 9mm thick plywood for the top? It’s a little thicker than 1/4 an inch. I think it is .35 inches.

I wanted to do the rabbet to hide the plywood edges. Felt like a 1x4 would feel to thin.

Did you consider making a pair with 1x4 poplar instead of 2x4 lumber for weight savings. I'm curious to know how much lighter this is.? Here is a good question how many labor hours did each set take you and how much would you charge for the boards if you were to sell them? Nice workshop!

@CasualBuilds

I haven't thought about using 1x4s, will definitely be lighter. The time it takes me to make these things won't really be relevant because I spend a good amount of time with filming.

It seems like there are pretty strict dimensions for the boards. The back is 12 inches off the ground. Is there a set height for the front end? I'm wondering if shaving the 2x4's and sinking the plywood affects the height off the ground for the front of them?

Made way too much work for yourself. Can make the boards lighter by using 1x3 instead of 2x4. On top of that use a 6” hole saw for the hole on the board. Save yourself time & less room for error. Final critique: use a pocket hole jig instead of drilling holes then having to fill with dowels. Also no clue why you routered out the frame for the ply to sit in the frame. Never seen cornhole boards like that.
