It was only when I searched for DIY instructions that I found out it's real name was Ladder Golf.<br /><br />Building a set today - thanks for the instructions.

Got a Contrators 10-Pack of 3/4 T's and 3/4" elbows at Lowes about 6 dollars total. Three quarter inch seems much more durable and less flimsy than the 1/2" pvc sugested in several on line instructions. Gluing every joint except the top of the tee on the base sides makes them much stronger than slide together joints which wear sloppy after time(gravity will hold the unglued joint together. When finished, this set-up pulls apart into four flat peices taking up 2'X4'X6"of the shed, and assembles in 30 seconds.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523306868430645729.post-51426683317946999622011-07-24T20:52:02.535-04:002011-07-24T20:52:02.535-04:00Just built this set today for my son and his wife....Just built this set today for my son and his wife. Pretty much followed your plans except I made the full rectangular base and I am wrapping each of the ladder horizontals in different color tape to add some color to it. I glued it all together except the T on the base so that the ladder separates from the base for easier storage. Pretty cool setup.Mikenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523306868430645729.post-13571260841486614972011-06-18T18:55:56.397-04:002011-06-18T18:55:56.397-04:00Mike-you saved me a lot of time.

The 18" was too short for that style rope.<br /><br />We also ended up putting the supports at 18" on both sides of the bases instead of one, and we boxed it off.<br /><br />The directions were very helpful though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523306868430645729.post-66212074780833992922010-04-21T01:47:19.402-04:002010-04-21T01:47:19.402-04:00Thanks for the dimensions.
