I saw one of these in a store last week and thought it would be a cool game for my grandson. I googled it and there were many sizes and different ways to make them so I just made my own version, and I'll make my own rules too. LOL.I came up with 12'' x 24''. It's a 3/4'' x 1'' frame, much like a picture frame with a dado for the bottom. One bottom is 1/4'' and the other 3/8'', It's what I had on hand. I used a 2×2'' piece of white oak and turned the pucks to 1 5/8''. You can buy a 1 1/2'' dowel rod and cut them just the same. I made the center piece taller, kind of looks like a score board.
The pucks are 3/8'' thick so the opening was cut 1 7/8'' wide by 5/8'' high. The power cord is 1/8'' bungee cord I got from Amazon. 25ft for $6. When drilling the holes for the bungee I countersunk them so the cord won't stick out so much. Adjust the stretch any way you want. Caution too much and the pucks will fly. haha.
I painted one and left the other natural. Finished both with clear rustoleum enamel.It's a cool game and they have different ways to play. The object of this one is you start off with a chosen amount of pucks on each side. That's why I made plenty. Both play at the same time. First one to get their pucks on the other side wins.
Thanks for looking.
