Dart Board Case
- DifficultyMedium
Build your own display case with a scoreboard for the dart board in your recreation room.
Step By Step Instructions
Step 1
Start by cutting the variety of material following the dimensions below with the Dremel Ultra-Saw. Material: 3/4" Sanded Plywood (1) 20" x 24" Material: 1" x 4" Pine Board (2) 25 1/2" (sides) (2) 20" (top & bottom) Material: 1" x 6" Pine Board (4) 25 1/2" (door fronts) Material: 1" height x 2" width Pine Board (4) 10 1/2" length (door slats) Material: 1/4" MDF (1) 9" x 20"
Step 2
Next, assemble the case by drilling 2 pilot holes with the Dremel 8050 in each end of the sides and top & bottom pieces, about 1/4" from the edges. Secure the precut sides to the base of the board, the 20" x 24" pine board with the 1 5/8" screws.
Step 3
Then, assemble the doors that go on each side of the case. Leave a 1/8" gap between the front panels before drilling and securing slats with 1" screws.
Step 4
After you’ve assembled the doors, stain and paint them your desired color. Once dry, attach the doors to the case that you built in step 2 & 3 with hinges. Space the hinges evenly, 2 to 3 inches from both ends of the doors.
Step 5
Finally, create the scoreboard for the dart board case by painting the MDF with chalkboard paint. Once dry, create pilot holes 1/4" from each corner with the Dremel 8050 again. Secure the MDF to the inside of the door with 1/2" screws on each corner. Hang the board on the wall, place the dartboard in the case and you are ready to play!
