Watch me build this popular lawn game- a Cornhole board (also known regionally as bags, sack toss, or bean bag toss) for much less than the $449 Pro ACL Pro Cornhole Board -Broadcast Version.
If you’re looking to build your own set of cornhole boards or make some as a gift, the good news is that the design isn’t too complicated and they can be built in a relatively short time with some common woodworking tools. If you have advanced tools like this track saw, you can use them as well.
Each cornhole board top is 2′ x 4′ birch plywood. Many plans suggest 1/2″ plywood, but I decided to upgrade to 3/4″. You can use a circular saw, table saw, or track saw to cut your pieces.
I used select grade aspen 1×4’s for the frame. They’re secured to the plywood with wood glue and pocket screws. I took a roundover bit to most of the edges in order to give them a nicer appearance. I also added 2 middle support pieces to help minimize the bounce.
