well friday we started building our new ramp. we have one side of it pretty much done, we have the frame rails and the angle all tacked together. we're putting in the supports soon and making the other side and everything else. if my friend comes online i will tell him to get some pics of it for me.

since when do you weld wood

looks like wood but i think its metal, look at the curve, looks like little pieces of welded metal, and look at the crosses, theres some more weld

Posted by: Juggalo

its made completely out of metal lol well actually the top will be plywood but the whole frame is metal!

Posted by: muff

yea thats what i thought

Posted by: Derek

That thing is just flat out amazing. I have got to get enough balls to hit one of those some day. Well good luck with this ramp cause its looking mighty fine.

Posted by: Rip_Tear

Posted by: Juggalo

hahaha its cool, and jon don't worry i checked up on the contruction today and the second side is almost done, its actually probably done right now. it will be finished soon, and we're expecting you.

Posted by: AZblaster44

yea you dont want to build a large wooden jump, the bigger one is this picture has cracked and we are no longer using it

david we need updated pics NOW!!!

Posted by: Juggalo

haha jon i will see what i can do. i wish i was closer to where its getting built but i'm not so that makes it kinda hard to give up to date updates. if my friend with the digital cam comes online i will have him go snap a few pics of it. the second side should be finished now and i wouldn't be suprised if they were working on connecting the 2 peices now but i don't know what is done for sure.

and yeah we have gone through 3 wooden ramps. none of them lasted even a year and they were about as sturdy as you could make wood. so unless you have like a huge stump and your gonna carve it into a ramp (billet wood lol) don't use wood to make a ramp.

Posted by: muff

i like the giant stump/ramp idea

Now that was actually funny

Posted by: Juggalo

well i got word today that the ramp is finished (stage 1 at least) and all it needs is plywood. i am goin to check it out tommarow and i will try to get pics. hopefully we'll bring it up here and get some wood for it and test it out. stage 2 of the ramp we are making it into a trailer to hold 3 quads and your gear.

Sweet, when are you comming to pick "us" up

JP Sounds good Juggs, pics soon?

Posted by: motoracer11

cant wait to see some pics.

wish i had a ramp, but if i built one, dont see how i would transport it. i could imagine it now, drivin down the highway and it falls off

how heavy is a ramp like this

Posted by: Juggalo

well i went and looked at it yesterday. its not ready for plywood yet but some of the crossmembers are tacked in and its stood up and it shows how big it is. ITS FREAKIN HUGE! man it is big. its probably heavy as a mofo too i dunno how we're gonna pull it. nobody i ride with has a big enough truck to pull it (one guy has a ranger and the other a blazer lol). its huge tho. oh yeah its gonna hold 4 quads not 3. 2 inside of it and 2 out side. the bottom will fold up 90 degrees and lock in place and there will be side rails and the quads will rest on that outside. inside 2 more can sit and also gear and stuff. we are making the hitch removable and the alxe and tires will drop down from the bottom when you want to haul it, so that it sits flat when jumping. the whole thing will weigh a lot. i am guessing 800 lbs maybe but i bet it will be way more than that. i would not be suprised if it hit the 1/2 ton mark. its kinda worrying me but i dunno. one thing is for sure, and thats when its done its gonna be an awesome *** kicker! hey did i mention its huge? HUGE!

Posted by: motoracer11

well 800 is lighter than i thought

good luck movin it...mayb you could rent one of those huge flatbed tracter trailers
