I was blessed that my brother “lent me” his bench sander. Lock the fence into place and proceed to cut the rest of your pieces. It’s always best to be a bit longer and cut off a bit more. You can practice this step on scraps and make necessary adjustments.
Adjust the fence of the miter saw until the non-moving saw blade lines up with the pencil mark. Place the 2×4 on the miter saw and against the wood block. When you’re ready to cut the pieces measure and mark the 2×4 at 10-1/2″. Alternatively you could also use a clamp. But not long enough to stick out too far. Make sure you use screws that are long enough to pass through the metal and into the wood. The have holes in them and, they usually slide out to adjust for varying cut lengths.Īnyway, find a piece of scrap that has a square end and attach it to the fence from the back. On your miter saw look at your fence (that’s the vertical part at the back.
Giant jenga fail how to#
It’s not super important that your lengths be exact, but if you’re OCD like me I’ll show you how to how you make them exact. (who’s idea was it to actually make them smaller than the name? #truthinmarketing?) The 2x4s are cut to 10-1/2″ because three 2x4s side-by-side measures 10-1/2″. Are you wondering why jenga pieces are 10-1/2″?
Set up your miter saw and cut all your pieces to 10-1/2″. But you’ll likely have some areas you want to cut around, such as knots or gouged areas. Punch Bowl Social Fulton is open at 310 N.Mathematically you’ll get 9 giant jenga pieces from each 2×4 and that equals 6 2×4 boards. It was a great time and I highly recommend booking something here if you’ve got a decent sized crew you’re partying with while you’re here, and also if you’re just looking for some good fun when you’re in the area! We had two lanes to ourselves for the party and then roamed the place as the night went on and were there for HOURS. Kimberly hosted her half birthday (yes, she celebrates her half birthday, don’t ask) at Punch Bowl last year, and it was a blast.
It does get pretty booked up after 5pm for the bowling lanes and karaoke rooms, so try to reserve in advance if you know you and your gang want to get in to any of those shenanigans. Punch Bowl is open from 11am-2am on Friday’s, and 9am-2am on Friday and Saturday, meaning you could get there as early or as late as you want and still be able to actually get booked in for all the fun things. This is the best place to hang out in the winter, because you can head to one single location and not have to trek through the Chicago winter to get from place to place once you get bored. I mean seriously, the opportunities are endless. Book your own karaoke room for $35-$45 per hour and pretend you’re Lady Gaga, then find the bocce ball, ping pong, and foosball tables.
Head back over to the bowling area where they’ve got Virtual Reality headsets for $20-$45, depending on how long you want to play for, then jump over to the Vintage Arcade for some classic Frogger, Donkey Kong, and pinball. Then take your adventure over to the 360-degree bar where they often on weekends have different DJ’s spinning for hours. You can bowl for $10-$12 bucks per person for an hour, then hop over to the Holiday Lodge room where you can play giant Scrabble, pool, and Giant Jenga. The best part is most definitely not the food and drink, though.
