Hi everyone!  Have you ever gotten bored in the middle of class, or maybe during a meeting?  Well now there's a solution!  Behold!  With this easily portable foldable cornhole game, you can take the fun of cornhole with you anywhere in your pocket.  It can fold into a suitcase and fold back out into a cornhole board. It takes little material and about 15-25 min to make.

First, just draw out two 6" by 3" rectangles.  Cut them out.  Mark a line 1.25" from the top and then mark another line in the middle (thats 1.5" from each side).  Get your compass out and make the length between the tip and the pencil 0.5" so it will make a 1" (diameter) circle.  Draw your 1" circle centered on the intersection of the lines you made.  Cut the circle out (an exacto knife would work a lot better than the scissors i used).  Lastly, mark a line in the center of the rectangle so you have two 3" squares.  Go ahead and cut the rectangle apart.

The Sides

Start by marking lines so you make sixteen 0.5" by 3" rectangles.  Cut these out.  Start hot gluing them onto the sides of your top board pieces.  Glue them to all four sides of both pieces as shown in the pictures.

Legs

First mark a 3" by 1"rectangle.  Cut that out and then cut it in half "hamburger style".  These two pieces will be your legs.

Handles

This step is optional.  the handles just give it a suitcase look and make it easier to hold sometimes.
First cut out two pieces that are 1" by 0.5".  Then just cut one side out.
