Project Information

After building some regulation size Cornhole boards and they were a big hit with my friends and family I decided to build a scoreboard…

My design is very similar that you see online on the likes of Pinterest ..the scoreboard consists of the following

2×4×1/2" thick sanded plywood ( ripped lengthways to give 2 panels with dimensions of 12" x 48"

Materials:
:- 2" acrylic numbers ( 3 packs)
:- (2) pieces of 12" brass chain.
:- (2) 2.5" brass hinges
:- 1/2" dowels ( 2 pieces 1.5" length
:- 2'x4' 1/2" thick sanded plywood..

I made a blog detailing its build and you can go to the page here

Ed,
Been following along and ended up at your project page -good job. I've one question, how stable is the board when set up on the lawn with two beers loaded in the holder? Seems it might be a bit narrow and top heavy, what's your experience?

Hi Greg,
It works great , I only put 12" of chain on each side creating a balanced front and back… As far as the full beer bottles on the stand I haven't tried that yet as I have no beer left lol… I'll let you know
