Camouflage 3-D Corn Hole Boards

Finally got around to finishing the corn hole board set for my Son-In-Law. After mostly finishing them with the normal lines and designs, decided to try something different, so I sanded everything off. I had a camo jacket in the shop which gave me the idea. I wanted to give it a ( kind of ), jungle 3-D type affect. It has two base coats of dark forest green to start off. I collected six different kinds, and sizes of plastic leaves, and three different colors to use. I used all colors and leaves in different colors and positions in six different layers to give some of them more depth, which made it have a 3-D type affect. It was then sealed with poly satin finish. The legs fold up/down and are locked in either position with a big wing nut on the underside. The under side has three coats of shellac for a finish. The bags are out of duck cloth and filled with corn to the proper weight. Thanks to my wife for the sewing part. Everything on this set-up is to regulation rules. Believe it or not they DO have official measurements and weights etc. I put heavy duty handles on one side of each to make moving easier. They are made of 1/2 ply and 2X4s that I trimmed on the table saw to give crisp edges.

Switch over project.

Those are cool! I think I’d miss the hole ‘cause it’s hidden in the pattern…of course I usually miss the hole anyway…in cornhole…usually…

Ryan/// ~sigh~ I blew up another bowl. Moke told me "I made the inside bigger than the outside".

Good comment, lol.  You may have just given me a new idea. 
Love that pattern mel.

Wish you were my old man and told to clean up... "what", "where"?

BTW:  If LJ moderators were Aussie... this project would be totally banned.

If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD

A nice set Mike. I'm with Ryan I would miss the hole.

I made a set last year for my daughter as one the wedding gifts, she loves yard games.

working with my hands is a joy,it gives me a sense of fulfillment,somthing so many seek and so few find.-SAM MALOOF.

LBD - Thanks for the comment. As it gets darker out ( and a few more brews ), it does make it a little more challenging to count the score.
Eric - Thanks, this game seems to be getting more popular all the time.
oldrivers - Thank you.
RyanGi - I'm still trying on how to put a GPS in one of the bags to help me. lol
