>>> WELCOME BACK. FATHER'S DAY IS JUST OVER TWO
WEEKS AWAY, AND WHILE PRESENTS ARE ALWAYS GREAT, WHY NOT TRY
SOMETHING A LITTLE DIFFERENT THIS YEAR?
DIY PROJECTS CAN SERVE BOTH AS AN IDEAL GIFT AND A GREAT WAY TO
GET IN GREAT FAMILY TIME. KEVIN O'CONNOR, HOST OF "THIS
OLD HOUSE" IS HERE WITH GREAT CREATIVE IDEAS.
ALWAYS GREAT TO SEE YOU. >> GOOD TO BE BACK.
>> WE WANT TO MENTION THE PROJECTS WE ARE GOING TO SHOW
PEOPLE REQUIRE ADULT SUPERVISION.
>> GET INVOLVED.VED. MOM AND DAD SHOULD GET INVOLVED,
BUT THAT'S PART OF THE GIFT, THE QUALITY TIME YOU SAID.
>> THE TREE SWING. >> YOU CAN SEE RIGHT THERE MOLLY
IS SWINGING ON IT. THIS IS ATTACHED TO THE BAR
BECAUSE OF THE PAVILION, BUT THIS IS GOING INTO A TREE.
WE HAVE GLUE, WE HAVE PAINT, WE HAVE HARDWARE AND WE HAVE ROPE.
WE HAVE TAKEN HARDWARE AND TAKEN GLUE TO PUT THEM TOGETHER TO
GIVE YOU A BIG ENOUGH SURFACE TO CUT INTO ANY SHAPE YOU WANT.
>> I LOVE YOUR FLOWER. >> RIGHT THROUGH THE MIDDLE.
THIS IS A 1-INCH BIT. >> WEAR SAFETY GOGGLES DOING
SOMETHING LIKE THAT. >> RIGHT THROUGH THAT AND THE
ROPE IS GOING THROUGH HERE. THEN YOU ARE GOING TO PAINT THIS
UP. >> AND TIE A KNOT AT THE BOTTOM
TO MAKE SURE IT HOLDS. >> HERE'S THE KEY, YOU WILL PUT
THIS THROUGH A BRANCH ON THE TREE.
YOU DON'T WANT TO TIE A KNOT TO KILL THE BRANCH OR WEAKEN IT.
SO WE ARE GOING TO TAKEN A I-BOLT AND DRILL IT THROUGH.
SECURE THIS THROUGH. THEN WE HAVE A THEM THIMBLE AND
THE ROPE WILL BE ATTACHED TO THIS.
>> I'M GOING TO PRETEND TO PAINT AND THEN SWING WITH MOLLY KATE.
>> CARSON, HOW IS YOUR SHORT GAME?
>> IT NEEDS WORK. >> HOW DID YOU KNOW?
LADY FAIRWAY? >> YOU'RE GOING TO MAKE A GOLF
HOLE? >> YOU CAN MAKE I WANT AS
COMPLEX OR AS SIMPLE AS YOU WANT.
>> THIS IS MEDIUM DENSITY FIBERBOARD.
WE HAVE ADHESIVE. TAKE THAT.
WHOLESAW, PLUMBING FIXTURES. >> HOW DO YOU GET THE FELT
THROUGH -- >> START SPRAYING.
>> SPRAY THE FELT. GET ALL OVER IT.
>> THIS IS JUST A GLUE? >> THIS IS A SPRAY ADHESIVE AND
YOU'RE GOING TO GET THE FELT FROM A CRAFT STORE, ALL THE WOOD
IS COMING FROM A HOME CENTER. YOU'RE THEN -- THIS IS THE
BOTTOM SIDE. THIS IS THE 2 BY 2 GLUE HERE TO
RAISE IT UP. AND YOU'RE GOING TO PULL IT UP
AND PUT IT ON THERE. WORK ON THAT.
NOW EVERY PANEL GETS PUT TOGETHER, BUT ONE OF THEM IS
GOING TO HAVE A HOLE IN IT RIGHT HERE.
>> OKAY. >> SO YOU WILL HAVE DRILLED THE
WHOLE FIRST WITH THE WHOLESAW. ONCE THE FELT IS ON, THIS IS AN
END CAP, PVC. THAT ENDS UP GOING IN.
>> MAKING A MINI GOLF COURSE HERE.
>> YOU'RE PLAYING -- >> I'LL SEND IT OVER TO AL.
THANKS, KEVIN. >> HOW ARE YOU DOING?
SOCCER, YOU LOOK READY TO PLAY? >> I ALWAYS WONDER HOW PEOPLE
PUT TOGETHER THE GOALS. PVC PIPE, FITTINGS, ELBOWS AND
TEES. THIS IS DEEP NETTING, ZIP TIES
AND CUTTERS. YOU HAVE TUBING CUTTERS HERE,
THIS IS A RATCHET. VERY EASY TO WORK WITH.
YOU CAN CUT THIS TO LENGTH. WATCH THIS.
POPS IT RIGHT OFF. YOU'LL BE PUTTING THESE TOGETHER
WITH THE PVC GLUE. AND YOU'RE GOING TO FORM UP THE
GOAL. YOU CAN SEE THE KIDS OVER HERE
PLAYING WITH IT. NOW THE NETTING, WE'VE PUT IT ON
THERE, APPLY IT WITH ZIP TIES. PUT IT ON THERE, TURN IT AROUND
THE OTHER WAY AND PUT THAT ALL THE WAY AROUND.
AND YOU'RE PROBABLY, IN ALL OF THESE THINGS, IN AN AFTERNOON,
WILL BE PLAYING WITH THE KIDS IN A WHOLE BUNCH OF DIFFERENT WAYS.
>> THEY ARE PLAYING SOCCER. >> YOU GOT THAT THERE?
>> I DON'T THINK SO. MR. LAUER?
>> MR. ROKER, THANK YOU. JUST SWINGING WITH MOLLY KATE.
