Going for the win here...
My buddy and I made this washer toss this week.
It's 2x4s on a 3/4" plywood frame.
Yeah, that's astroturf...
4" PVC, L brackets, 2 toolbox latches, and a handle.
It locks together, and the washers stay inside.
It sports the old and new Phillies logos, cause, well, they're the World F&@#g Champions!
Keep an eye out, you might see us tailgating in lot K13 this year...

We got a little too excited, and didn't grab pictures till after the inaugural match, so there's some battle scars already.
It'll age like fine wine though...

This is the ladder golf set. We made this simultaneously with the washers game you see above. This one was a lot less labor intensive and required far less tolls. Deuce was responsible for most of the fine craftsmanship you see above, we pretty much handled this with a vice, a hacksaw and some spray paint. The scoring rungs are done in colored electrical tape, the frame is painted black and the fittings are chrome, cause hey, pimpin' ain't easy.

The Bolas are made of golf balls, 18" from end to end. Careful when drilling then, an eye was almost lost to to an exploding center.

We actually played the inaugural game yesterday, mostly because we have been hot to trot for the washers set. If you have any questions on the making of either game, Deuce or I would be glad to answer.

Thanks for the contest. I really enjoyed it. I ended up making Kubb. Turned out to be a lot of fun to make and play. I documented the entire process and created a tutorial of how I put my set together. At first, I was concerned that the batons weren't thick enough. But after playing a game this evening, the thinner batons worked just fine and hand no problem knocking down the pieces. Great game. It would be so much fun at a church picnic, family reunion or at the beach/camping. It takes a bit of space for the court. But its quick to set up and I have a feeling you'll be playing quite a few games in a row. I know I can't wait for the next game! ;)
