If youve got about 20 bucks, go to KB Toys (if there is one near you) and buy one of those plastic skate ramps. Theyre very durable and will get you up in the air pretty good.
If you want a wood jump, id suggest going to a skateboarding ramp plan site and getting some plans from there. Ill post a link later.

I gotta say that I just built this ramp the other day and I am IMPRESSED with the way it is designed, very easy to build too if you have the ability and tools to do so. I am hoping for nice weather tomorrow and Sunday to attempt my first jumps with it. [sm=thumbup.gif] [sm=thumbup.gif] [sm=thumbup.gif]

maybe you should tell him that. just jokes. I've made two And I'd love to show you them ( ramps) but I'm not sure how to get them on here the pics are on my computer but how do I post them here thanks

RE: building ramps
 
Well you can upload them into your gallery here or upload them to a space on the internet and then link them with the "Image" command above.

RE: building ramps
 
I'm really not sure what I'm doing but I have them in my gallery but still not sure how they just appear any way they're there thanks for all your help I have an idea and can play around with the angles and lifts thanks again

RSprinkel 03-22-2005 02:58 PM

RE: building ramps
 
Well if you wanted to have them appear in the message you have to have a place on the internet to where you can upload the pics too, then when you click the "Image" button above where you type you have to put the web addy in between the [img]web addy here[/img]. Once you do that and click Ok the image will appear. Like the picture I posted above is from my website addy in an image folder.

You are welcome for the help anytime. God knows I have received TONS of help from here before and like to help when I can to repay the people who have helped me. ;)

BTW ramps looks good. Front one though looks alittle too steep. Truck/car might go straight up in the air, but don't quote me on it, LOL

If it where my ramps I would like them as they are nice ;)
