I used Minwax you can find it on Amazon HERE or I’m sure any home improvement store might have it as well. We clamp a belt sander to a table and turn it on, viola I just have to stand there and hold the boards against the running sand paper! My hubby brilliant I know.ģ.The board might be to rough to slide well under that amount of pressure, so I waxed each top and bottom piece so that they would slide easly out. Here is how you make your own giant Jengaġ.cut your 2×4 into 11 inch pieces making sure all the pieces are the same size so you don’t get a wonky tower! you can get 69 pieces if your careful although you only nee 54 or less depending on how tall you want your tower.Ģ.sand the edges, like my other wood projects I have my cute hubby set up a make shift sanding station. So the game Jenga was born in 1982 and here is how you make your own blown up version of this game!Ĥ 2x4x16 this will make 72 you really don’t need that many Now I found that fascinating that its not an ancient African game, but really if you think about it we have been building with blocks from the beginning of time. Jenga was created by Leslie Scott, the co-founder of Oxford Games Ltd, based on a game that she played with her family in the early 1970s using children’s wood building blocks the family purchased from a sawmill in Takoradi, Ghana. I did have to talk my hubby into cutting all the wood for me, but he much rather cut wood than weed the garden so I took the garden and he got out his saw. I love the indoor small version of Jenga anyway so this giant DIY was going on my summer to do list. Make a giant Jenga game from 2×4’s, seriously guys its so easy and one of the funnest games I’ve played outside in a long time.
