So we had a nice set of cornhole boards that we loaned to the daughter early this year. Somehow they came up missing. So I decided to make a set. I used a nice piece of birch sanded plywood. I also pocket screwed all the 2x4's into the plywood and then secured corners with 2 screws at each end joint. I set the boards on a piece of pipe at inside edge and got them level for the handles so they could be carried evenly. I stained the design with walnut stain and all the other is bare plywood. 9 coats of water based poly got the boards to tournament slickness. This was a fun project.
