DIY portable putt putt course using upcycled plywood

Jack saw a DIY Putt Putt Course on TV.
He decided to make one to give to his uncle.
We started our project by making a cardboard prototype.
We had to redo the holes because we accidentally put them in the wrong place.
Then, we worked out what tools and materials we would need and got to work.
We are all very happy with the final result. Jack tested it out to make sure it worked.

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @JacksProjects. We're so pleased to have you join us.

 

What a great idea to make a cardboard prototype first.

 

I hope Jack has lots of fun with the completed game. Perhaps you could also get some artificial turf like @Fergus used in this D.I.Y. mini golf project.
