Thanks for visiting and carry on the spirit of cornhole! ![]() The American Cornhole Association 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. 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. 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.
