There’s something about throwing things in competition that grabs people’s imagination. My easy-to-build outdoor ring toss game harnesses this age-old human interest, while also offering you the chance to work with plastic, metal and paint in creative ways. Built from 1⁄2″-diameter copper water pipe and 4″-diameter ABS pipe, this project is inexpensive, simple and durable.
It’s also designed for compact, organized storage between play sessions; the rings will sit on each post, and each post hangs easily from a nail.
