I borrowed Fun Family Projects from the library on a whim and today we actually managed to make the soccer goal. The boys thought the hacksaw was awesome but the project took far too long to complete to hold their interest. While they were running around outside constructing toy guns out of the PVC pipe, elbows, and tees, I measured, glued, and tied the net down. Methinks the folks at Home Deport steered me wrong on the netting and zip ties, though, as the first kick caused two zip ties to come off and the netting to rip. The search for new netting commences but overall I'm happy with the instructions and the end result. Once new netting is attached, it'll be one hardy soccer goal. Of course there were pictures...
