Got it level on pads.
Got a fair bit of lumber and timber products in a pile.
I’m off schedule.....but reckon still on track.
Not that hard to zip it all together......just need more struts.......I’m gonna hit my budget on the finished surface so I’ve gotta scrounge some more undershit.
Going to bury this thing in sand up to it’s neck for soundproofing.🤪
And just For Sticks......Jayco.🤓👇🏻

How are you going to fasten the 2x4s when the tranny is against the fence.
Nice Ute
The Jayco is an invitation |

Tranny sits internal to the base.
There’s enough room to fasten screws.......just.🤓
The ply will overhang the trannies about 1 1/2 inch on each side.
I could screw the struts on the tranny before I move it into place to connect it to the flat base frame but it’s all good.👍
Just gotta cover those fence posts so you don’t cop a ‘swelbow’ on the way through......haha.
Cheers for the interest.✌🏻
Haha.....talk about skating in confinement.............literally. |

One mans junk is another mans funk.
Definitely need more 2x4 struts.......quite hard to find.
Even though the ramp is only 8 foot wide I gave it a middle transition so I could use shorter lengths of 2x4 for struts.....thinking it would be easier to scavenge shorter lengths.......ha.......still fucken hard to find.

Soooo behind schedule......
Was supposed to have this finished by Christmas......about a week left in it.....😖
I did get a level post in to run stuff off of off of.
Instant flat is working out a treat.
Anyway, my xwife goes and buys and iPhone for my daughters Christmas present and has billed me $300 bucks.....apparently “our” present for her.......😡.
There goes the budget on the ramp.
I reckon I buy 2x4 struts and ply for the ramp and send HER my bill.
🥺that would never work.🥺 |

I’m not coping with no coping.
Do I get a couple of street poles.....they’re fat.
What do I do.......PVC..?
What is available on the street to steel?......(steal). |

Look for an old beat up chain link fence and grab the posts for coping. 🤘🏻 |
