You might enjoy wrestling. Part of this is building a wrestling ring, which can be done with a few simple steps.

Steps

  1. 1
    Make sure that wherever you're going to build your ring, you make sure that you have enough room. Also, think about the size of your audience. Will it be large or small?[1]
  2. 2
    Gather metal poles, plywood, some tires and tarps. Most of these items can either be purchased or if possible maybe a junkyard for the like say the tires.

  3. 3
    Start by using the plywood create like a bed. Make sure that you use enough plywood so it's high enough.
  4. 4
    Fill that bed with rubber tires. Once the bed is full, put a layer of something soft like a bunch of old blankets or a lot of towels, and put them over the tires.[2]
  5. 5
    Cover the bed with a tarp and nail it into the wooden sides of the ring.[3]
  6. 6
    Grab four metal poles and set them at each corner of the ring. Then, connect them to the sides of the ring in the corners.[4]
  7. 7
    Get some rope, drill and screws. Using a drill, screw in eye hooks into the ring posts (three in each post).
  8. 8
    Make a square. After all hooks are attached using a bunch or rope, thread it through the eye hook all the way around the ring, creating a square.[5]
  9. 9
    Tie the ropes off and you are ready to rumble!

    Yes. Use mattresses, then put a thin piece of wood over the mattresses. Layer some softer materials such as blankets. You can also box in the mattresses with wood all the way around, and just drill them together.

    Normally, it will cost up to $300 just to produce a wrestling ring. You should definitely look into how much the mats cost, as well as the ropes. Wrestling Mart is a good store that sells all the things that you will need to build a cheap wrestling ring.
