Bimini Ring Game

Design and Documentation

Before you get started, you must create an isometric drawing. Your design does not have to look like the photo, but it must be functional.

Isometric Drawing: A clear, 3D-perspective drawing of your final design 

Dimensional Accuracy: You must label every major component with dimensions (Length, Width, and Thickness).  Also give overall dimensions so that we know how big the project.

Joinery: We will be assembling with screws.  Need at least two screws per joint so that it does not pivot.  

Project Constraints

Material Source: 100% of the wooden components must be sourced from the scrap bin. No new boards may be cut from the lumber rack. Also minimize waste, don't grab a board is way bigger than you need.

Structural Integrity: The upright arm must be sturdy enough to handle the momentum of the swinging ring without tipping or wobbling.  The base must be big enough so that it does not fall over while being played..

Adjustability: Your design must include a way to adjust either the string length or the hook height to "fine-tune" the game's difficulty.  

The "Scoreboard": You must include a "man-on-the-board" scoring ladder (the wooden piece with holes) to track the progress of the game.  You could design it so that it is attached on top the game.

Design Freedom

The photo provided is just one way to solve the problem. You are encouraged to:

• Change the shape of the "head" or arm.

• Make it yours. As long as the physics work, the look is up to you.
