I want to take up an old hobby of throwing darts but the only place to put up a dartboard is in my garage. And there is no open space on the walls so I will need to create a drop down folding backboard. I am no whiz at cabinetry or woodworking design so thought I would see what suggestions I might get here. I would think a 4X8 sheet of plywood cut in half with hinges would work but I need to know how to attach it to the ceiling (sheetrock) and keep it up there flat while still being easy to pull down to play.
Any ideas?
