**This was taken off of Wfigs Forums ages ago. I just wanna repost to share this with anyone who wants to do their own ring.
based off Jakks' RSR scale of 1.1 inches = 1 foot (22 in. x 22 in. = 20 ft. x 20 ft.), here are my mathematically challenged measurements for a scale TNA ring.
* Post to adjacent Post: 18.5 inches
* Rail to adjacent Rail (side to adjacent side): 17.14 inches
* Rope to adjacent Rope: 13.3 inches
* Sides: 10 inches
* Ground to Floor: 3.75 inches
* Floor to Bottom Rope: 1.5 inches
* Floor to Middle Rope: 3 inches
* Floor to Top Rope: 4.6 inches
Well I started with a huge piece plywood (go to a local hardware and ask for a "plyboard"), the smooth kind, not the mind where its a punch of wood chunks glued together. Each side it 12 inches long, so i drew a line, and measured each angle (120 degrees) and drew six lines, cut it using a table saw/regular saw.
Then take 2 (4 X 6) pieces of wood, cut and put them under the plywood. Cut six 5/8 inch dowels painted them, put hook screws as turnbuckles, and I used 90 degree braces to attach them to the main plywood, put some fabric down, to take that wood clunk away when they hit the ring, and them put the blue canvas on.
(in place of dowels, i used 1x1 wood found on hardware)
Here’s the dimensions (Credit to some guy on here, sorry forgot who)
Sides of the hexagon - 12 inches
Floor to top of ring post - 9 1/2 inches
Floor to top rope - 9 inches
Floor to middle rope - 7 3/8 inches
Floor to bottom rope - 5 3/4 inches
Floor to mat - 4 1/4 inches
And presto, six sided ring. Glad you guys like it!!!!
As far as ring skirts, probably just black fabric.
