Why do you need a ramp then? just keep that shit flat.

Well theres a drop off and it's hard to get the mower and blower in/out

and if there's nothing there it's a large flat black rectangle

ahh the angle of the pic makes it look like nothing. if it were me I'd make a dirt ramp. pile up some dirt tamp that shit down as hard as possible in the shape you want. sprinkle that gravel on top done.

work smarter not harder Clippington!

so how'd the ramp turn out?

cool, I was looking at my shed which has some rot damage and it reminded me of this thread. gonna makemy own thread when it's time to fix it in a few weeks. got a bunch of other shit to do first

Buy some rib bars, wire, washed sand, gravel, portland cement, straight edges, a long level, chalk line, trowels, measuring tape, a disposable bin, a bucket, and some Clippy brews.

Man, if it is really hot out, throw some slag into the Type 10 GU powder. It won't set up as quickly but it will have less chance of cracking. Don't forget to sweep it with a broom to give it some texture so you won't slip. Also water it after it sets up.

Yeah the fucking brush finish is what's missing here.

you can use cement accelerator which is doable but it might be too fast for Clippy<Oku02>

And what I got so far....

That looks really good. Those bricks will never move. Freeze/thaw cycles won't ever touch that.

It was almost perfect.

So, what did the father-in-law think of it?

I'm never inviting him over again so we'll never know

 

[Fuzzybabyducks]

what I would do is offer someone free bricks and rocks.... once they accept tell them that you have a million dollar reward for anyone who can build a ramp the quickest.... once they build it tell them you forgot the million dollars in your other home and you will call them later with the money. change your number, enjoy the new ramp. If they come onto your property seeking reward call the police

My first ramp to the shed was made out of wooden 2x4s and it rotted out and the next ramp to the shed was a piece of plywood which is coming apart bad.

I have bricks in the garage a pile of miscellaneous crushed rock behind the garage. I was talking to my Father in law about how I need a new ramp and he told me to use the bricks and crushed rock

He tried to explain it to me and I didn't get it and he explained it again, some specific way to make a wall with bricks and fill it in with rock? I think he has a specific vision I don't understand. How will this keep or work logistically?

And then he came by and asked why I haven't done it yet but I really don't get what to do.

Can someone help me plan this?
