Built a ramp, borrowed a camera! - 10.27.2007, 10:38 PM

So I built this ramp:



and dug out my wifes nikon 2100 2mp camera since i destroyed mine last week. It did quite well for an 8 year old 2mp cam that has been in a box in the closet for 4 years.

I broke a front camber link and the plate the holds the 1mm rear arm mounts. The Rusty is down for a bit, as is the Maxx with a broken bellcrank.

Do you think you can get a picture of the underside of the ramp? I also want a to build a ramp right now, plus I have access to a wood shop with every tool imaginable. I would just like to see how you laid out the the 2x4's underneath the main plywood piece.

Thanks.

I could not store it in the den then. I live in a shoe box sized condo with no outside storage. This ramp is already pushing it with my wife. I have it his well so she let it slide.


Jnev, maybe in a few days, it is stored away right now and I'm in bad back pain from working on my 1:1, no lifting.

No worries. Hopefully your back gets better. Have fun driving the Rusty in the mean time.
