Creating football
Building a table football with your own hands is not so difficult. There are several easy ways.
First, let's prepare the items that will be useful for the construction of the field. We willcreate a board game out of the box, so you should carefully choose paper containers. It should not be too high or soft. A shoe box or any other low and dense container is quite suitable.
Before work, check the availability of the necessary items:
- big box;
- large size white cardboard;
- scissors;
- glue;
- adhesive tape;
- stationery knife;
- tray;
- foil;
- small boxes;
- long rounded sticks;
- plastic packaging;
- white paper;
- flour;
- water;
- hole puncher;
- blender.
The order of work requires the exact fulfillment of all points:
- In the prepared box, you need to cut off the closing parts. Walls can be cut to size.
- Mark white cardboard for bottom decoration. This DIY foosball table out of the box will look natural and store-bought.
- From the cut pieces of cardboard, you need to cut out different strips to mark the playing field. They should be glued to the white cardboard with which the bottom is covered.
- From the inside and outside, additionally secure the bottom with tape.
- From small boxes make legs for the "stadium". To do this, place long boxes, for example, from tea bags, on both sides of the workpiece, parallel to each other.
- In the wall of the box with a clerical knife, cut out the gate.
- The rest of the excesscardboard needs to be shredded. This can be done by hand or with a blender. Put small cardboard elements in a bowl and add a little flour and water to them. The proportions are taken by eye, but from the resulting mixture it is necessary to make balls.
- Bake the round parts in the oven to harden. These will be soccer balls.
- Draw a player template on paper. Transfer it to cardboard. The height of the figurine should not exceed 10 cm. Thus, 16 parts should be prepared.
- Glue a strip of corrugated cardboard and the second part of the player to one part of the figure. So, we will get voluminous "football players". The appearance of the players can be decorated with foil.
- Spread the sticks evenly on the field, so that the "strung" parts of the little men do not interfere with each other.
- Poke holes in the cardboard walls, put sticks through them and attach them to each player. The do-it-yourself table football is almost done, only a small part of the final work remains.
- Cut out squares from sheets of white paper to fit the gate. Cut them into strips of noodles - this will be the net on the gate.
