Once the holes are drilled I cut along the outside lines of the rectangle with my jig saw and connected the two holes to make one large handle hole in each of the boards. Using a 2 inch forstner bit I drilled 2 holes in each board on the 2 center points I marked on the rectangle that were 1 inch in from the end. One person uses this loading tray to build up the tower by placing layers of three wooden blocks at right angles to each other. The set, which is simply called a 'monogram tower' on LV's website, retails for 3050. These points will act as center marks for the holes that will be drilled The official Jenga rules from 2000, which are printed on Hasbro's website, have this to say about setup: SETUP. Jenga was released in North America in 1986 and became an immediate hit. I marked a center line horizontally across the rectangle and marked a point 1 inch in from each side. Standing at 831 feet tall, 56 Leonard Street was made with 145 condominiums across the reinforced concrete structure. From the center I measured 3 inches in each direction, marked 2 lines, measured down 4 inches from the top and marked a line across the board, measured 2 inches down from the top and marked another line across.įor the handles I first laid out a rectangle that was centered on each of the side boards 6 inches wide, 2 inches tall, and 2 inches down from the top of the board. The most incredible part of the tower is that as Tai builds, he expands it outwards from the single Jenga block giving it a physics-defying appearance Surprisingly, the center remains hollow where the first standing Jenga block is placed. For the layout of the handles I first found the center point of both the left and right side boards. The current tallest tower in Austin is the Independent, a 58-story residential skyscraper nicknamed the Jenga Tower for its offset design.
