nice


blah blah blah

[Sk8 Or DiE]

Dang!!! thats sweet! is it done yet?

[martyboy]

well sorta all the topboards are on but we need to get the coping still so far its cost about £250 not bad aye?

[rankz]

How much are you paying for your wood? Its costing me a bomb.

£6.50 per 12ft 2x4
£32 per 3/4" 4x8
£18 1/2" 4x8

It works out at about £390 for a 8ft wide, 3.5ft tall mini. Where you get your wood from?

[martyboy]

BnQ the top boards cost £15 each there all weather chip board 8ft by 4 an the batarns are a bargain at £2 each 10ft an teh top boards cost 10 each 6 ml ply 8 by 4

[Laughing]

Looks sick, although are you going to get enough speed, cause the middle section looks a little large.

[Sk8 Or DiE]

^^^ nah its fine. and you can always pump. how high is it:?

[martyboy]

4 ft 10 ft wide 21 ft long total

[rankz]

What are bartans? the joists? is this all from BnQ ?

[martyboy]

yer all from bnq the cross beams so yer the joists

[Skate or Try]

BnQ is fine if you got the sausage and mash. Looks gnar though, fair ploy

[martyboy]

[rankz]

I don't understand what you mean by:

oh here it goes
21 x 10 by 3 inch joist £44


Do you mean 21 lots of 10ft x 3inch bits of wood? I'm confused.

[martyboy]

yer 21 pieces of 10 by 3

[missysince1992]

DANG! that is awesome!

[rankz]

Did you go by any plans or just improvise the build? What size transition is it?

[martyboy]

Skate-lite or skate armor

btw about how long is the flat?

I'm thinking of making something like this (http://rampplans.org/ramps/DonB/spine.html), and right now I'm just trying to figure out the dimensions... for a mellow mini ramp what would you guys suggest, like for how long of a transition?

[martyboy]

um well this is 6ft so 6 am half or ft trany would do well for you if you want it mellow cool cheers i susspose that stuff costs thou an theres 10ft of flat btw

[STR8 RIPPIN']

Looks very nice. i am trying to persuade my dad to let me build one in my garage

[Alex Osbourn]

hey that is a very awsome ramp but what is its total demensions length with and is the hight off the ground or off the top of the flat???

[martyboy]

read the forum the dimensions are in there but hey 4ft by 10ft wide

[raoul the lizad]

i like all of the palm trees. you have to call it "tropical transitions"
