Once you have drawn the transition (only draw one), cut it out with a jig saw.Īfter cutting the first piece, lay it on the remaining plywood to sketch another transition, cut this out as well. Building your dream Mini Ramp has never been easier WA Skate Ramps Mini Ramp kits includes everything you need pre-cut, pre-drilled & ready for fast easy. Make sure you take your time with this, and that you keep the pencil vertical as you draw. Use 3-inch exterior deck screws to attach it to each of the stringers. Brace the high end of ramp with a 2-inch board that has been cut to length and rip-cut to the height of the rise. Make sure to use a rope or string that does not have much give, fishing line works well. A ramp 4-feet wide uses four stringers two at each outside edge and two evenly spaced inside. Tie a string to this screw, tie a pencil to the other end of the string so that the pencil will be on the starting point when the string is taught. Our mini ramp is 12 feet wide x 24 feet long x 3 1/2 feet tall with a 7 foot transition. The slope is ideal to prevent water from pooling but not great for building a skate ramp. You can use the ramp tool to preview the plywood cut if you make adjustments. Our mini ramp is built on the back part of our yard which slopes down to assist with water runoff. If you want your ramp to be steeper, decrease this length (a transition radius of under 3.5 feet would result in your ramp having vert). Put a screw into the 2x4 that is 6' 10" away from your starting point. Next, screw a 2x4 into the plywood so that the inside edge is 12" into the plywood. I describe the string and compass method fully here, but you might also want to check out the more general String and Compass Help.įirst, Draw a point that is 12" into the length and 3.5" into the width of one of the 4' x 8' sheets of plywood.
