Keep track of favorite ball caps by screwing balls to a baseball bat.
Materials:

plywood round (33" in diameter)
latex paint
three angled leg brackets
hot glue gun
rickrack trim
3 baseball bats
drill
3 hangar bolts
vice grip
Plexiglas cut to size of round

Steps:

1. Paint plywood as desired and let dry.

2. Divide the diameter of the round by the number of legs being used to figure bracket placement (for the featured project, 33 divided by three equals 11). Screw the leg brackets two inches in from the edge of the round.

3. Glue trim to the outer edge of the top for decoration (use a low temperature to avoid burns).

4. Drill a hole in the handle of each bat and screw a hangar bolt into the holes with a vice grip. Screw the legs into the brackets and turn the table upright.

5. Arrange favorite pictures, game or movie stubs, baseball cards, etc. under Plexiglas top.
