50 Mini Kicker Ramp PLAN

[bulldog93]

Old steel I just can't use it...The rust and all does contribute but I get weird thoughts when I see old stuff at the dump haha

Yeah same at work experience this year thats all they did... With mags aswell haha

 

[tomy251]

Well have not done ANYTHING on this Ramp yet...HSC Exams are coming up and all the steel is locked up at school

Will get going on this from the 4th of November once Exams are ALL OVER!

Anyways...got back on SketchUp to fix up the Bottom of the Ramp being too steep to start off with before I actually start building.

All I would need to do to make it much smoother would be to extend the Length from 3000mm to 3600mm...giving a pretty good Kicker Ratio I think of 2:1

This is how it should look now :

Let me know how it looks NOW haha.

Cheers guys!

Haha yep. When I picked up the 6m arcs I was like...SHH*T haha!

Stands at about 1800mm high. Those CAD Drawings dont show how big it really is.

Should turn out sweet though.


And with the English HSC Exam...I did Standard and the actual Exam wasnt too bad...just remember some quotes, ideas etc. then just ramble it all together haha. I think I went alright with it.

 

[bulldog93]

Yeah. When you think of the measurments you don't imagine it to be that big. Still be awesome fun to hit up on a mini.

Yeah very true haha! Should be sweet...just need to ask around for dirt for a Downramp now.

Ha yeah you should be fine...it is pretty stressful but once it's all done it's a GOOD FEELING

Got out today and got MORE than what I planned to get done so Im pretty happy with that!

Heres what I got done:

The Bottom of the ramp where I first thought I was going to have a problem with:

Once I got it with the hack saw and the grinder...pretty happy with how it sits on the ground:

I managed to get the right side all tacked up and got the left top half tacked up as well! Only a few more days and it should be finished
