Just finished knocking up a couple of ramps to use at work , 3 ft x 1 ft x 6"  made from a wee bit of 1/8 plate .

Good for 50 ton the pair

Rob,

Those are seriously nice ramps! How much do they weigh?

Will they be in a rather permanent location? If not, would they need handles or slots to aid in having a lift point?

Very odd . I was asked the very same thing on madmodder. 

About 15kg each .not heavy .and yes they are not in a fixed location .

So why do you think they would need handles and where would you place said handles Ken ?

What I fined odd is why folk would think that they would need handles .if one came across a 3ft log would you be unable to pick it up due to the lack of handles ?

Or is it that folk think I can't design a set of ramps ? And have missed something .

Maybe it's just that there is no need for any handles/slots .becouse if I had felt the need for such I would have added such things .

Look at the underside how many places dose one need yo get hold of something? 


Rob,,,,,,,,,it's getting old
