What welding projects are you working on? Are you proud of something you built?
How about posting some pics so other welders can get some ideas?

Hi all,

Found this interesting project while searching for some new vehicle service ramps I could buy. Something a little taller than a pair of plastic ramps.

The layout is at the bottom of the linked page. Looks like a cool project.
What would you do differently?

Comments or suggestions appreciated... ;) I'll probably be working on a version of this next week.

Thanks!

Those pics look nice. Ramps are all about bracing and weight distribution. I saw a Tinner bend up a set of car ramps out of 28 gauge galvanized that he just tack welded together. We made him drive his truck up first :) but they worked.
I have more questions than answers
