G'day all.
Have been asked if I could make a croquet set, but know nothing about it (except that one needs mallets, balls and hoops).
Have done a search on the forum - didn't yield much.
Have also done a google but couldn't seem to drag up any decent info.

What I'm looking for is basic dimensions etc. and what a set consists of and a rough idea of how to go about it.
Would like to do as much as possible on the lathe (I guess it's mostly lathe work anyway!).

Any one else tried this?
Any ideas/pointers would be much appreciated. TIA.

Just found this pic - so I guess I now know what a set consists of.
Need a wee bit more info though!
