Bongo Pong weds gaming, balance with makeshift Indo board

Another day, another DIY attempt to reinvent the world’s most reinvented title. On the docket nowadays is Bongo Pong, a nifty iteration of the famed classic that utilizes a Velleman Pong kit, a makeshift Indo board (read: bare skateboard deck), a few “small metal tubes to use for the tilt activated switches,” and a beefy cut of PVC

pipe. Total costs rang up just under $20, and while that version of Pong isn’t apt to inflate your triceps, it should tryout your balance (and patience) supremely. Hit the read link for the video demonstration.
