1
Trace the top of your post to the bottom of a pie tin. Use the pencil. Even though it may not make a mark, it should leave an indentation that will show where you traced the outline.
-
2
Cut the tracing out with your sheet metal shears. You may want to wear gloves for this part since cutting metal can be perilous.
-
3
Slide the pie tin over the top of your post. This will be the base of your basket. There should be about 18 inches of post sticking up through the base.
-
4
Attach four ropes to the post. You will need one rope on each side of the post. Each should be nailed to the top of the post so that it hangs over the edge of the base of the basket.
-
5
Nail the bottom end of each rope to the post underneath the base of the basket. Do not pull them taut. These ropes will form a cage around the base, and you will throw the Frisbee so that it becomes tangled in the ropes or lights on the cage base itself.

Tips & Warnings
The larger the pie pan that you use, the easier your Frisbee golf basket will be to hit. However, if you use a really big pie pan, then you may need longer lengths of rope.
