Bottom of ramps?

[jmoosey]

What should you put at the bottom of a ramp so you don't run over the bump and fall????? I used thin sheet metal, but that bent and it doesn't work anymore. Any ideas?:eek:

Anything that is strong enough to ride up, but not bend. What might help you, is get a slightly stronger metal...place a tiny piece of wood UNDER that..to support it, you know. You really shouldn't have it hang over as much as you do...since that's what happens. You should place the metal parallel to the wood...with only a few inches hanging off (scraping the ground). This should keep it from bending...and make your transition smoother. Also, support it with something.

ya, you can use sheet metal, just a little bit on the bottom, for a nice finish. You can also sand it down, but that requires alot of effort if you dont have an electric sander. Also, for a temporary fix, you can use multiple layers of ducktape. This works quite well actually. Hope this helps. Peace.

or you can do this and varnish or paint it so u can ride up smoother(paint actually works if applyed properly)
