How Do You Build A Wooden Skateboard Ramp?
If you are a serious skateboarder and have no skate park in your area, you may want to consider building a ramp right in your own backyard. Having your own ramp will allow you to practice and skate any time you want, as well as teaching you how to use basic woodworking tools. All you need is a few tools, some wood and a lot of creativity. Take a sheet of inch-thick plywood and lay it on the floor. Draw a line up the right side of the plywood board, making the length of the line about two feet up the board. Making a second line starting at the end of the first line. Draw the line to the left toward the center of the board and stop once you reach the middle of the plywood piece. Use a hand saw to cut along the lines you drew on the plywood piece. Do Steps 1 through 3 on a second piece of plywood. You now have the side pieces for your ramp. Take your 2-by-4 pieces and make the bracing for your ramp. Space the pieces out evenly between the two side pieces, about six inches apart from each
