Bimini Ring Games make a wonderful Christmas Gift and Stocking Stuffer. They provide hours and hours of fun filled action and entertainment and are surprisingly affordable to make. Prices for pre-assembled games range from under $10.00 to over $200.00, many of them are manufactured in the US while others, like the multiplayer games, are from China. With the help of this article you'll learn how you can make a Bimini Ring Game for under $4.00.

Making a Bimini Ring Game is easy – you can find all the parts required at most hardware stores – If you don't mind purchasing more than you need, or if you are planning on making several games – the hardware you purchase at the local store will work great.

Here's where to start…

You'll need to purchase the following items:

  • 1 Hook – measuring about 3.5 inches long overall.

  • 1 Ring measuring 1.5 inches in diameter (inside ring).

  • 1 Screw Eye (about 1.375 inches long) to attach the string to the ceiling with.

  • 1 Small Plastic Anchor to insert into the ceiling for the Screw Eye to attach to.

  • 1 Larger Plastic Anchor to insert into the wall for the Hook to attach to.

    Note: The Larger Plastic Anchor is not required if you are attaching your hook to a wood post.

  • 1 Piece of String measuring about 6 feet long.

So… how much does all this cost?

You'll need to visit your local Hardware store – Ace; Home Depot or Lowes will have nearly everything you need under one roof. Some of the items you need are only sold in packages of multiple items – meaning you'll be paying for hardware you wont be needing. The hooks come in a package of 20 for around $9.00, the rings are usually come two to a pack for $1.50, the plastic anchors are 100 to a pack for $4.00 and the larger plastic anchors are usually $4.00 for 50 or so. The small screw eye hardware is about $5.00 for 100 ea. and a package of string will run around $4.00

All the hardware will run around $27.00, but if you buy 10 more rings for $17.00 you could potentially build 12 games for around $44.00 which is less than $4.00 each! You can probably think of at least a dozen friends that would enjoy owning a game – and these games make a great Stocking Stuffer for Christmas or for the traditional Chinese Gift Exchange games at Christmas parties.
