How do you make the curve in the ramp?

 

[foolsp33d]

depends what material you are making the ramp out of, ply will bend as will some steels. other materials may need to have their edges cut at angles to 'align' to the desired shape.

so...
What are you building out of?
What 'curve; do you require?
What is your acsess to tools like?

FWIW this is a ramp my cousin and a few mates knocked up in their spare time... All steel, high grip surface(considering), wheels on the rear for ease of relocation.

How to bend metal for ramps?

Hey im wandering how to bend metal for ramps. I need to know how asap as i am about to start building a couple. Thanks

 

[foolsp33d]

dude, this didnt need its own thread.. will merge with your existing...

 

[crazy-latin-steven]

What would you recommend i use? I want to use some sort of metal tho i dont trust wood. How do you bend the sides of the ramp? The part that the ply gets put on to.

 

[crazy-latin-steven]

Hey is there side rails to put the checkerplate on or do you just weld it to the supports. I included a pic of yours.

I replied here cos i frucked up and cbf'd posting it again...

cant actually remember how he attatched it but i dare say you can either tac weld it in place every 30cms or so, or use a roofing screw with a washer through the holes ever 30-50cms...

 

[foolsp33d]

another angle, the look welded...
