Hey fellow jocks. I haven’t been able to spend much time in the shop lately since I’ve started up a new company on the side. I was able to build these really fast before my fiance’s 30th b-day bbq. It was a hit at the party. There were lines of people to get in on the next game.
I found a website with some great building instructions here. The only thing I did differently was making a circle jig for the router instead of the jigsaw. This was a neat little weekend project. Painting made me nervous since I’m not use to doing that but I love the way it turned out.
And now I have to add a little plug for my new company. Its the Terrace Table. Check it out.
All comments welcome. Thanks for looking.

It seems that most people are drawn to this game and can’t resist the urge to play it.
Did you paint the logo as well, or is it a decal? It sounds like you painted it. If so, great paint job!

As someone who has been building, custom painting and selling these things nationwide from by one man garage for years I can say—one of the finest paint jobs I have seen.
You should be proud – great job.

Jonathan… I did cheat on the logo. It was a decal & I used an exacto knife to cut out around the logo. I didn’t have the time and probably not the skills to pull that one off.
Dan M… That is quite a compliment. Thanks.
