3 LEVELS of Cornhole Boards -DIY to PRO Build

[@jeradmiller4575]

Threw me off at the 17:00 minute mark when I heard the background music Bourbon Moth always uses for his intros.

[@seibert1234]

yea, that music comes with a resplendent beard

[@ADwOS]

Same here! Made me stop and think "wait... did the video end and change?!"

[@danmcconnell7986]

I don’t feel like it was an accident. With how much he hates river tables playing that song during epoxy pours.

[@DumbfoundedMadman]

I thought it was a subtle hint that they were going to call him for an opinion.

[@Jaquadine0345]

same lmao

[@bipolarchemist]

As far as aesthetics go, I prefer the 'beginner' board but I did enjoy watching the pro build and I can say that I was not disappointed. LEDs belong in everything. I think the only change with the beginner board I would do would be to route some channels where the stripes were, embed some LEDs and then fill it with semi opaque black resin. For bonus points, I'd add an IR sensor that triggers when anything passes through the hole to give a light show the likes of which no cornhole board has seen(at least to my knowledge).

[@lukebrammer9299]

I was so happy to see Jordan's energy and confidence up this video! Maybe a twist would be 3 levels of profit projects? Each of you doing separate builds and including the price tag and/or trying to sell them

[@codyobanion4427]

Agreed!

[@fredmyers503]

I think we need a 3 ways to build a picnic table for the patio or back yard since July 4th is coming up and we may be grilling the meats soon and need a place to eat. . .

[@dale_E24]

We “may” be grilling??? Lol

[@andrewdonaldson6388]

Great suggestion

[@MichaelDreksler]

This is a great idea, there are so many ways to build even a 'standard' picnic table.

[@southernslangerz2254]

Definitely need this

[@carpe_poon5761]

😂 I agree. I saw some at lowes yesterday for 150 or 200$. I just want a solid frame of one and I can build the rest. I was thinking about using that composite instead of wood, that will last forever

[@brotato_tx]

Happy to see Jordan still has a job at the shop!

[@natepetrich9059]

Yeah...the Bourbon Moth music was a little distracting..I was waiting for him to pop out somewhere. I think 3 levels of outfeed/assembly table would be awesome!

[@themplar]

Good i'm not the only one.

[@awbrigham8191]

No your not

[@D-Vinko]

I actually really want this one

[@Sztivmon]

Jordan - Has access to $5000 table saw Also Jordan - Uses 2x4 offcut as hammer

[@brickbros211]

With the price of wood these days, you can’t waste scraps

[@Aconinja83]

So what you're saying is he used a $5000 table saw and a $1500 hammer. 🤣

[@LordOfTheSnoop]

YEAH! Jordan lives!

[@timbeiner2040]

Growing up in the 60s and 70s the corn hole ment something else

[@SpencleyDesignCo]

excellent work on these boards boys!

[@sendtosmith]

Two ideas I think would be cool for three level projects. 1. Wood mallets 2. End table or Night Stands. Thanks for the great content gentlemen!

[@melaniestapp4627]

Gonna have to be honest, had no idea what a Cornhole Board was, asked my family, consensus was it had be something to do with cooking.... didn't sound quite right, because you know it had to do with America, googled it, told my family, new consensus with heads shaking "Americans! always knew they were an odd people, can't get a good drunk on without making it a game." (im from New Zealand) That said, really liked the look of Jordan's build, simple and clean. Good work Jordan!

[@CLCustom1911]

You guys are flexing on us Poors with your nice 2x4's and plywood.

[@tesau315]

"The CNC Cowboy" followed by the "Howdy" was amazing

[@jasonanglin4838]

As a woodworker who has made many boards over the years, I would love to get you guys the go to method for the pros now. There is a whole Facebook community specifically for board builds

[@HickeyTyson]

If you choose someone’s idea and other people have the same idea. Whoever’s idea is chosen they should be entered into a raffle and the 3 projects should be shipped to 3 winners.

[@farls1290]

2019 Cornhole DIY boards $50 2021 Cornhole DIY boards $500

[@chrisk6101]

lmfao hell yeah with this lumber price 😩😆

[@jaywashington2196]

I felt the freedom in the epoxy pour Perfect timing with Memorial Day yesterday

[@Jim_Fries]

8:01 YINZ! That just made me miss Pittsburgh so much.

[@kixnxtdoor1721]

I love this 3 level series

[@kaydog2008]

On mine I installed a laminated shoot underneath to return the bags to the front with a hole and tray. Plywood is also laminated with two 1 x 1 attached angled on top to direct bags to the same tray as the shoot.

[@jdahling4738]

So simple and it never crossed my mind. Thanks for sharing that idea!!

[@cdaemicke3145]

The inner Midwest dad in my soul be vibing the shit out of this

[@danatassler8776]

I'm so glad you showed the error!! I feel like a human!

[@carpe_poon5761]

The tools are not the problem, the biggest foul is using 1/2" ply😂 I use 3/4" birch decks. And 1x3s are lighter and stronger. Then I round off the edges and corners with a router. I will never go back to 2x4 frames. Im not critiquing or hating. Just sharing ideas. Great content and boards. Much love from Ky 🇺🇸

[@jpdst29]

Best feature I ever saw on a corn hole board was a built-in tape measure so you can get them the exact distance every time regardless of where you are.

[@designcreationswoodworking963]

John move the fence on the jointer forward so you dont have so much of the cutter to reach over as you wait for the guard to be installed. Semper Fi!

[@leroybrown1845]

Got to say this is awesome. I bought mine off marketplace and they must of built it below beginner got to use rocks to level and already broke 2 bags open. You all do great work.

[@BenLeclerc]

Just did a pair. I used pocket holes from the underside on the 2x4 to secure the top to the frame. Came out very clean and won't have to worry about filler/epoxy getting worn down over time and creating slight dimples around the edge of the board

[@suelogsdon3468]

I always use pocket holes as well but sometimes have issues with the screws wanting to poke thru the ply. How do you adjust?

[@JimPepperTactical]

@@suelogsdon3468 move the collar on the bit closer to the tip. If that makes sense

[@fjelstednord3159]

Looks like fun, however, I'm not too impressed with the Pro version which surprises me as I've seen John build some very nice pieces.

[@calebstettler9136]

Three level project idea: work shop cabinet storage

[@mherrmann81687]

Love the stars vs stripes idea for the bean bags... nice touch

[@musclesmiyazaki]

I love the differing levels of camera work on display here too @4:50

[@petercofrancesco9812]

My favorite part was when he cut the legs too short. Not reading the directions correctly and measuring mistakes is very relatable 😆

[@ScotScottMcA]

Nice to see that Jordan is still alive after the kitchen fiasco :D

[@MyrrdynWhitefall]

3 levels gaming tables, I'd love to see your interpretations of that.!

[@homeyledieu275]

It’s not excessive joinery until you’re hand cutting dovetails into that thing. 😎

[@CovChannel]

Hole cutting: If you have a router, grab a circle cutting jig. It will cost less than a 6 inch hole saw and let you do quite a bit more..to include cutting the rounded end of the cornhole board legs with an additional router bit. The cuts will be cleaner with less chance for tear out.

[@TotalBoat]

They all look great!! Such clean and beautiful work! Love the USA pro build!

[@Yusufthe1st]

the transition to the sponsor was smooth as hell

[@geoffbelnap5223]

I love this series! The next one should be 3 levels of epoxy.

[@ericbatt4317]

I appreciate the jointer honesty haha gotta get stuff done

[@wcmauldin81]

That has been one of my Favs so far.

[@victoriadiane6243]

Really John? I thought we were free of that corn hole...not the project, JORDAN. Did not miss him. Love ❤ you n Sam AND that awesome patriotic board!! 🇺🇸

[@jordanheider2662]

Words hurt

[@mauserkk98]

I had no idea what these were going to be until the last 2 minutes of the video , now I get it .

[@MrJackWeyler]

I’m curious about the two boards that were set in the frame. Did you size the plywood accordingly so the entire playing surface is still the regulation 2x4? Or is the plywood 2x4 with an extra lip of and inch or so around the sides?

[@Bubba-23nineteen]

Can you do a longer video on building kids wood swing sets? You could build a box store one and a diy idea for a great sturdy and fun one.

[@christopherstuber9174]

Is nobody going to bring up the fact that John didn't even turn his "really expensive" led lights on at the end of the build? wtf?

[@bezusandre]

He did for one second

[@alfonsoPina]

OMG all the innuendo's!!! lol, love it.

[@carpe_poon5761]

I love the ripper, joints and the cnc design with the poxy. Very creative, I like your style. Keep making AMERICA GREAT💪

[@kellyb7321]

17:00 playing the Bourbon Moth theme song while, ironically, working with epoxy. Something Jason hates in most of his videos. Nice little nod there.

[@aaronwasha5713]

Should be using 3/4” Baltic Birch. Pine is too light (creates bounce) and standard plywood is full of voids and not enough layers.

[@waynewesaw935]

Hey Men those look FANTASKICO !

[@JEDIMinja1]

I like that you used Burbonmoth Woodworkings music in the background lol. Love you dudes

[@davesch1512]

Hey John if your jointer didn’t have a Guard you could’ve just moved your fence over the thickness of the wood and you would’ve been OK. Instead of having the fence all the way to the other side

[@davesch1512]

Just the tip

[@meganswindall7839]

Im about to build some with some left over hardwood flooring. Would it be too slick iyo.

[@vik_vektor]

I heard some Bourbon Moth sounds, my 2 favourite channels

[@jimblack6733]

Another awesome project by some incredibly awesome squirrels!

[@zohso]

Was that Bourbon Moth's theme song at around the 7:30 mark? Lol

[@jmac2o229]

yes, its "im not crying" by of men and wolves if ya were wondering

[@SuperFly1414]

I love these! Please do a book shelves next! Getting sick of buying Ikea, and would love to learn to make my own correctly!

[@cameroncarollo4071]

John you may like this. I had some boards at the bar I used to work at that had a level built in between the legs and the legs were adjustable to make sure your board wasn't leaning in a uneven surface

[@TheSpud1129]

I got all my pieces cutted? I laughed out loud on that one. Like the shirt as well.

[@brucel.stanton3241]

Maybe some end tables for the living room. That would be a good project.

[@josephperkins2793]

What kind of sprayer do you use and what kind of finish do you spray

[@carolbuzelim]

I think is nice to see what experience build at you. Things became ‘easier’ and a bit over the top hahaha

[@morenojc71]

Lil Bourbon Moth on the DL. Nice.

[@theclassicalcraftsman]

3 levels of Mallets. 3 levels of Birdhouses. 3 levels of Crosscut Sleds.

[@D-Vinko]

Mallets would be interesting; birdhouses will be pretty interesting but a nightmare for the editor. There's like only 1 way to make a crosscut sled, the only thing that would change is the connections between boards. Or rather, they wouldn't look very different is what I mean.

[@MCsCreations]

Pretty fantastic work, guys!!! 😃 Stay safe there with your families! 🖖😊

[@bjk12385]

Aquarium stand or bathroom cabinet with towel rack

[@MartyFriesen]

Measurements might be nice. This looks huge.

[@rafaeldickens]

19:34 I guess the led strips of the hole may be beter to start and end in the opposite side 👍🏻

[@kurtmann654]

I love the 3 levels videos they always get me amped up to do some work in the shop.

[@guglielmoserafino8682]

Good morning, I’m Italian and I’m building a cornhole at my house. I would like to know what finish to apply on the top to have the correct slipperiness. I have already built my cornhole entirely in laminated spruce. I just have to give the correct finish to the top. Thank you for your availability, best regards.

[@egalva00]

How did you remove the excess epoxy on the overspill? What’s your process for sanding the epoxy?

[@TheDesignerXD]

Just a little bit into this. Are Jordan's legs on backwards?

[@jordanheider2662]

My actual legs or my board’s legs?

[@TheDesignerXD]

@@jordanheider2662 meant your board’s legs lol. Just in the last scene before we go to Sam it looked like your legs might have been backwards.

[@RiddikulusCreations]

Hey, Love the videos i just build some cornhole boards like this and used my CNC, but i had over pour will sanding it like you did in the video help with the over pour? will it scratch the epoxy that's filled inside the logo?

[@motodunner]

Love those pro boards.

[@JohnDunn1969]

Hi John I hope to get two Squirrely sticks when they are back in stock. They look so cool. Keep up the great work. Thank You

[@chriskidd4201]

Love the 3 level series

[@BandSWoodcraft]

gotta love the Pro version but guys...I didn't see a SINGLE bald eagle in this video. What gives?

[@TonsOFun.010]

Cleetus McFarland used them all up

[@XCF33t]

😮🤔

[@vernvollum7685]

How would you attach bottle caps to a cornhole board before you epoxy the board

[@glowilk5377]

Ya- i wanted to that too- You Tube it!

[@got2getit204]

Well I need a set bad because i just started and now I’m hooked and wants some custom ones! Let me know how much?

[@erikshimandle6915]

I think I start at level 4 and have made it to 6 so far. Soon, I will take my boards to level 10. I start with 3/4 top grade plywood, then use 2x4s with a brace for no bounce. From there I can add lights, used epoxy resin on a few, do custom decals, even made 2 glow in the dark sets. Next I plan to take them up a notch!

[@anonyvt4360]

Nice build. I want to build a set with LEDs outlining the edge of the board and the hole only for night time play.

[@jashenfelter]

Do you have a web site for purchasing?

[@brandonjohnson7559]

You should do 3 levels of coffee tables, Everyone loves a good coffee table

[@jasongalvan6357]

We don't get to see the LEDs in action? Also no cross supports for intermediate or pro boards? Good looking boards still!

[@carlmanns9232]

Ok so being a retired vet i can really appreciate the USA ones. Now where can i buy them LOL

[@samueltomasoa6450]

i thought jordan will be fired after the kitchen reno video. glad that he still hanging around

[@hudsonbubb2359]

Love your work keep it up it inspires me and others

[@Randy_Savage_ohyeah]

Informative, entertaining and completely awesome video!!

[@wandahamm103]

I loved your corn hole levels. Great job.

[@hellfire127223]

Nice job guys

[@awbrigham8191]

What spray did you use for crisp lines

[@Beatlefan67]

Great game which I was introduced to when in the States (thanks for the great times all you good people over here) Saw it first in Bryson City N. Carolina. I hope it will grow in popularity here in England. In pubs, obviously. We do pubs in GB. We do them very well, in fact.

[@ClintTredway]

I would have made the pockets for the logo a tad deeper so that you could use Miss Piggy to surface it after pouring the epoxy... great video though guys... love it

[@ArpadBuildsThis]

Love it! Slightly above AvERAGE!

[@TheWoodFly]

OK: here is the LEGIT Review: Level 1: WRONG Screws. You used a countersink to drill the holes which is a beveled screw head and then a washer/flat/Kreg version screw=minor hold no bueno. Use regular drywall to match next time. Level 2: DUDE, oldest trick in the book: Build it, put a board on the table next to the legs, mark and cut. Unless trigonometry is your best friend, DO NOT measure: mark and cut. Level three: ok, this was pretty cool. Love the finger joints for all things as once you built the jig and it works, next to dovetails, these joints are strong enough to drive a truck on (yes you can use that idea and test it, but I stand behind the claim). For the epoxy, which, dang you, now I love to use, I have a SLICK my grandfather had from the old country (Norway). I run that across after curing at it takes off the major high spots before the 80/120/180/220 routine. Reality: Gentlemen, I (we- they YT community) very much appreciate your 3-level approach which is awesome. Thank you for contributing and all three are worthwhile (sorry if I was a little harsh with 1 and 2)

[@carlmanns9232]

SO you can build some for me LOL. Love the input

[@herbaIous]

also apparently cabinet grade birch is the prefered wood

[@kenmaira]

OOohhhhh Oliver jointer, that's a beast!

[@SuperBigsal]

@johnmaleki you know what you call saw dust? Man glitter!

[@rikwarner1198]

Where did you find the battery lights
