Tools

   jig saw
   measuring Tape
   compass

Materials

   (2) 24" x 48" pieces of 1/2" pressure-treated plywood for the surface
   (4) 2x4 x 48" for the frame
   (4) 2x4 x 21" for the frame


Introduction

Game Time

You requires platforms be a 48" x 24" rectangle made from 1/2-inch plywood. The front of the platform stands 2-1/2 to 4 inches tall and the back of the platform sits 12 inches off the ground. The plans for this project follow those requirements.

Regulation corn bags need to be 6-inches square, made from duck canvas and be filled with two cups of corn feed. A set of eight can be purchased online for $25 to $30. You can also purchase corn bags made with a plastic filling; these are less expensive than the corn-filled bags and are weatherproof. Corn-filled bags can easily get ruined if left in the rain.

1. Project Cut List and Plans

You will need two 24" x 48" sections of 1/2" plywood; four 2x4 x 48" for the frame; four 2x4 x 21" for the frame; and four 2x4 x 11-1/2" for the legs.

2. Construct the Platform Box

Cut the plywood into two 2’ x 4’ sections. Cut the 2x4s to the length specified in the cut list for the frame. Fasten the 2x4s into a box with the 21-inch pieces inside the 48-inch pieces to form a 2’ x 4’ box. Lay the plywood on top of the box, use the plywood to square up the 2x4 frame. Fasten the plywood onto the frame with 1-5/8” screws. Repeat for the second platform box.

3.  Cut Legs and Fit

Cut a 2x4 to 11-1/2” for the four legs. Make a full 3-1/2" radius cut on one end of each leg. To make the cut, measure 1-3/4" down the length of the 2x4 and draw a line across it. Place a compass point centered on that line then draw the arc. Use a jig saw to make the cut.

Turn the box upside down; lay a leg parallel, flush up against one of the top corners with the radius side in the corner. Clamp into place.

From the inside of the box, make a mark in the center of the 2x4 vertically inside the radius. Drill a 1/2" hole through the side of the box and through the support leg.


4. Attach Legs

Install the carriage bolt through both holes and attach with a washer and a wing nut. Check for operation; see if the legs can fold up and down inside of the platform. You may have to adjust the radius top if it is contacting anywhere, use a sander to do this. Repeat the process for the other legs.

5. Cut the Leg Ends

To cut the angle on bottom of the leg, turn the box right-side up and set it on a worktable with the legs tucked under. Place a block (or anything that will hold it up, we used a bucket) under the box so that the back of the platform is 12 inches off the tabletop. Slide the box to the edge of the table, pull down the leg closest to the edge so that it hangs just over the table edge. Using the tabletop as a guide, draw a straight line across the bottom of the 2x4. Repeat for the opposite side. Cut the ends off using a circular saw.
