How to Build a Bullseye Washer Game

A bullseye washer toss game can be played inside or out. It's a popular activity at events like tailgating parties and cookouts. If you want to save money, build your own, personalized bullseye washer toss game. Create two game boxes to play as a team.

Things You'll Need

• 17-by-17 inch plywood (¾ to 1 inch thick)
• 8-foot two-by-four
• Handsaw or mitre saw
• Wood glue
• 14 wood screws (2 ¼ to 2 ½ inches)
• Screwdriver
• PVC pipe (6-inch diameter, 2-inch length)
• Paint or wood stain

Instructions

1. Cut the two-by-four into four pieces---two that are 17 inches long, and two that are 14 inches long.

2. Form a square with the two-by-four pieces. Place the two 17-inch pieces parallel to each other, and the two 14-inch pieces parallel to each other. The 14-inch pieces should rest on top of the 17-inch pieces to form the square.

3. Glue the four pieces together with wood glue. Once the glue dries, secure the pieces with wood screws. Place two wood screws at each corner, about ¼ inch from the top and bottom of the two-by-fours.

4. Place the plywood on top of the wooden square. Trim the plywood so it does not extend past the edges of the two-by-fours. Attach the plywood to the two-by-four with one wood screw in each corner.

5. Stain or paint the box.

6. After the stain dries, glue one side of a 2-inch piece of PVC pipe in the center of the box. Attach two wood screws to secure the PVC pipe to the plywood.

Tips & Warnings

• Consider painting your game the colors of your favorite sports team for tailgate parties. You can also place stickers with the team's logo on the outside of the box.

• Use a clamp when sawing PVC pipe to reduce the risk of injury.
