Thank you! If I’ve ever got the money to buy a kit, it will be one of yours simply because I so respect and appreciate you making this video. So detailed, so many good tips, such thorough explanations, plus a few industry secrets! I’ve never built a ramp, and this is going to help a ton. I’ve been scrounging around the neighborhood for a few weeks; I have finally gathered enough stuff to start building. I’m borrowing some power tools and using the hand tools I own, so it will take some time, but I’ll be fulfilling a childhood dream, making something me and my own kids can ride. I run an after school skate program and am passing it on that way, too. Anyway, thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Thank you so much Keen Ramps!!! My 13 yr old son and my 9 yr old daughter built a ramp following your video! We could not have done it without you. I think your ramps are very fairly priced. Especially if you have to buy jig saw, drill bits, sawhorses, paint etc.. so definitely go buy Keen Ramps!! 😊
Btw-Lowe’s actually had 1 by 2 steel plates to our surprise. So we bought two and they worked out beautifully.
Thanks again!!
This is helpful but also a great advertisement. That isn’t just your basic garage built qp that think is cherry and will last a long time with basic care
your business attitude is one of a kind, pleasure to see share of knowledge from people in the field. great video
Can you show us how you got the coping to the 1x1 as you kinda skipped that. Awesome that you sell ramps yet take the time to show how to DIY one. Perfect for people who aren't in the US..
Right, I was wondering how he got the bolt on in the middle. I understand the tap and die threading, but how'd he get the bolt to stay tight
I used a thick steel boring screw in the middle
Drill and tap the coping before bolting it to the 1x1. I used 2” 3/8-16 bolts. After you drill holes to match on the 1x1 simply insert the bolts through the 1x1 then screw them into the tapped holes in the coping until snug.
I feel like they weren’t paying attention lol
The way he said it was a little confusing tbf, but basically when youre tapping the coping you're drilling threads into the metal, which means you can screw the bolt thought the 1x1 and screw the bold directly into the metal
Man,
finally I found someone how gives the exact details I always searched but didn''t find so far...
Thank you very much!
Watching this a few weeks after I bought this same ramp from Keen. It was expensive to buy vs. build, but by far the best ramp I've ever owned. Super cool kit project to build with my son. Cool to see what went into it.
Thank you so much! This gave me enough confidence to try this with my 12 yo son. It took us about 10 hours to work on it (over 2 days) to complete it and 2 trips to Home Depot and 1 to Lowes for the sheet metal. The coping was definitely the hardest part. I will say I wish I listened and pre drilled the screws in on the sides because doing so afterwards with my son was another struggle. All in all it was a success and we are both happy with our new creation. The next one will be from Keen Ramps though 😅
Hey brother, thank you for this very educational video, the detail and tips are great. As a single dad who has a son getting into skating this is awesome! Regrettably right now I don't have the money for one of your kits, but I do have the tools and now because of you and this video, I have the know how! Thank You! Liam.
This was really well done. It's brilliant marketing and legitimately helpful. I have built cabinets and bike ramps but still learned some good tips. I'm already doing the math in my head and am much more likely to just order one than when I started. I also love how you bring the forktruck into play.
Absolute legend, thanks so much for putting this up. Made my first quarter pipe thanks to this, 2ft high 8ft wide, bloody love it. Great editing and excellent explanations. Big respect.
Man you guys are the BEST!!!! I'm usually broke ass broke and now for a little scratch, I can build a quality ramp! A million thanks and I hope nothing but great success to you and yours!!!!
Cutting the radius with the circular saw. Just tried it for the first time. SO much better!
🤯
Huge thank you. This should be in the library of congress. Perfect instructions.
This is great. I have a company building ramps in Kenya and I do it a similar way but unfortunately our materials aren't so standardized. I usually make my structure a little narrower because our plywood sometimes isn't a true 8x4ft, sometimes it's shy about an 1/8th or 1/4 inch shy on one or both edges or sometimes they aren't perfectly square so it's hard to get it perfect without doing some extra cutting. Sometimes the thickness of the ply is inconsistent too, it's so frustrating. It's next to impossible to get straight 2x4s too so I'm trying to build everything in 4 or 6ft sizes so I don't have to fight with the lumber as much as if I have 8ft spans. You guys are a big inspiration, keep up the great work!
thats awesome. you keep up the great work too.
Pure gold 🙌🏻 built a fair few ramps but I’m learning new tricks from this video.
A masterclass from the Don!
Many thanks for this video! First time cutting transitions for my friend's half pipe build. The skill saw over jigsaw choice for cutting transitions is on point.
thanks cory. big fan of what you have been doing. the school bus idea was incredible
I think it's amazing you're sharing your work with us. I hope everyone who uses your design and instructions gives you business down the road. Thanks again for the knowledge!
Thank you! Much better and informative than other ones I’ve seen so far!
Great video! Love the detail and editing. Can't wait to give it a try
I absolutely can’t afford your ramps so this is the nicest thing you guys could ever do thank you!
Watching this after buying a 2x4 quarter from y'all. Not mad at all, love supporting a skater made company and takes some of the work off my hands since I do not have power tools at the moment.
Could you make a full shopping list for this build? Thanks
Fantastic tute mate, thank you so much 🙏 PS Love the Li-ion rubber mallet.
Thanks Cory now I can build a second quarter to go with my keen 3ft by 6 ft quarter. Me and my boy have been having a blast on it so far
Keen ramps helped me when i was building mine from scratch! been great! ill take some stickers!
Can't wait to have space to get a mini. Your rails are top notch!
Hand down best tutorial 👌 thanks mate
I’m digging these new videos!!!
Best ramp building tutorial I’ve ever seen sick stuff
This is what I needed!!!
I love all of the videos I made a 6' grindrail with the ABS in one of your previous videos and it's pretty slick although I will admit I made it way more mellow than in the video.
Thanks for the detailed info. I'm building one for my son for Christmas 🎄.
I thought us plumbers were the only ones to use the phrase “dead nuts” as in perfectly plumb haha. It was funny to hear that elsewhere. Very nice quality build!
im going to try to make this for my little guy, let me know if I can get some stickers! im in the process of building a very durable Going box. pretty legit. happy there's good people like you helping others do it right!!!
I built my first mini ramp in my bedroom (it's still there) with only a few hand made drawings to go off. I wish I had this video. My mini works but not as pretty as yours. I made it 2 feet high with a 5 foot radius and it is tighter than I thought it would be.
great job! great quality!
Awesome and informative video!
Sick tutorial. Really appreciate your attention to detail. Would love to see a how to for the 8ft transition ledge. Keep up the great work
Air to boardslide the forklift was sick
Thanks Cory! Been watching a lot of ramp building tutorials and yours is definitely the most in-depth and helpful. How do you decide on the best dimensions for your deck? At what size do I need to put in extra supports for the deck?
Yes dude! 🙏🙏
Awesome video
this video is amazing.
I might add I bought some of these ramps cuz they legit ❤
youre the man!
A true master
if your keeping your ramp outside i suggest some thompson weatherproofing for all the plywood sheets.
If you lay 2 of the 2x4's you have for the ribs on the saw horses under the plywood b4 you cut them up it'll support the whole plywood sheet. Also, if you happen to own a router, you can mount it to a strip of 1/2“ plywood and use the same method for drawing the radius to swing the router through 2 pieces stacked on top of each other.
Amazing videooo
34:00 best part of the video. Thank you.
Very good video, thank you. I just built this ramp, and it is great. However, if I figure my labor at $25 / hour and the materials were $262 with transportation, that's $637 for this ramp. I realize I could've got it from you guys, with Skatelite, for about that. Oh well, building was fun, and maybe I can buy my 3ft one from y'all! Seriously, really quality video.
Great video. Really cool you guys doing this for folks. The free videos are awesome as well. Super fuckin cool. Wish I would’ve had this when I was growing up, we built some shoddy ramps and quarter pipes lol
That's how I use my forklift at the house too!
Great video, I know this is an older video, but I like to share some advice. Use a 1/2" router bit to counter sink holes. The counter sink bits get dull fast and they get expensive.
I think this is the most helpful video on all of TH-cam 🙏
Thanks, thanks, thanks... I apreciate that a lot.
Regards from Barcelona, Spain....
I hope you do the same tutorial with bowls , they areglar specially complicated on "corners".
God Bless you
Why didn't I no the holding the screw tip a week ago lol awsome
Sweet bro
You just got another subscriber
Man... I want to build a 3.5x12 mini but am so torn between buying from Keen or building myself. Really want to support you guys though! Maybe I'll get some merch and stickers instead and slap a Keen sticker on it lol Looking at using my Dad's Shaper Origin handheld CNC to cut the transition perfect and predrill screw holes. I like the coping idea with a 1x1.
My next project 🤙🏾
thank you man
Been wanting to build something. Hope the wife doesnt mind lol
When I was a kid, my friends and I got together and tried to make a quarter pipe🤔! It was 4 ft tall, had 2 feet of vert, pvc coping and a huge notch at the bottom, because we didn’t use flashing 🤦♀️😅!
We tried skating it once, all got hurt, and so our ramp was never really skated again…, until we got a new friend who tried to drop in on it, but slammed right into the ground, cause he knocked it over 😅 we were 12 tho, so we tried our best, haha 😄!
2 feet of vert on a 4 foot ramp is insane. That's a 2 foot transition radius. So basically you kids made a quarter pipe with the dimensions of a really gnarly backyard pool
@@fuckmyego basically! The sad thing was, if we cut it down to about 2 ft. , and just mad a new top, It would have been fine 😅
Do you recommend a couple passes of clear poly on the ply?
Ps I wanted to try tapping the pipe but wasn't sure if 40 gauge was thick enough for the thread to hold, thanks for the proof 👌 If you post a video about tapping a pipe without killing the thread or the tap itself, I'm watch that too 😂
For anyone interested in dialing in proper specs for how far the coping should stick out, Ben Degros has a great vid on TH-cam called 'The Coping Notch'. I highly recommend!
awesome
Thank you.
awesome video. damn near perfect size quarter.
wondering why you didn't make the plate flush with the top layer though. just curious.
also, look at the lens, not at the screen.
Don't have the money to buy a kit at the moment.....But because of this video, I have so much respect for you guys. Thanks for supporting skaters. Absolutely will be purchasing in the future when I can. Much love!
So fucken rad!! Hell yes!!!
Use a hole saw for the coping notches before cutting out the transition
awesome video. question: you can have the 2 transitions from just one piece of plywood?
yes you can
Imagine selling something… then you explain people how to exactly do what you sell is crazy… 😂 yet I respect that
thanks you really helped also I'm the hundredth comment
killer content
Do you guys do anything different from oc ramps?
Great stuff. Just bought the supplies. How do you thread the bolt into the coping?
I bought both PVC and a galvanized fence pole. But cutting down that fence pole seems daunting.
@@perrygrossman2008 I used an angle grinder with a thin cut-off diamond blade. Cut through pretty clean. I was also able to scavenge like 4 ten foot galvanized poles from a decade old abandoned lot. Good tool to keep in the car.
what do you think would be the best radius for a 5' quarter?
Ok serious question here… Have y’all ever tried to use hmmm🤔 let’s say some 16 gauge galvanized staples as an overall fastener? In my mind I’m thinking the staples would mainly fasten the face of the ramp down. (The part actually being shredded on) have you ever tried that fastening method? If so, what are the issues? The main reason I’m thinkin staples is simply for a faster install. Lmk what you think, your opinion would be very helpful!!!
Built a couple of these last year. The tutorial was super helpful. I made them 8' wide and now I am thinking of cutting one if them down into two 4' wide quarter pipes so they are easier to move around my garage when needed. Any ideas on how to split one of these without totally dismantling and rebuilding?
snap a chalk line and sawzall it
@@james3522 lol 😂 so rough.
Trying snapping some lines. Dismantling and rebuilding. Not as much fun as a sawzall.
@@toddpickell6364 Lol true a jigsaw might be less rough but not as fun as a sawzall
Where did you get those safety glasses? They look like my Oakley razorblade frames.
im trying to build a picnic table and a hip!
release your videos like 2 hours later and you will accommodate the AUS fans. bless, i'm not waking up at 5am.
super keen for this tho!
You could always watch it later?
@@lamBETTERthanY0U yea m8, couple hours later tho and more people will get to catch the premiere, unless that makes it too late in the US but I don't think it does... Anyway, who cares quarter is fkn awesome, definately gunna make one of these... Love corrigan but the higher quality build videos are definitely a step up.
Please start shipping to canada!!! :)
Where do you order the steel pipe for coping ?i cannot seem to find anywhere to order the sizes needed for these kind of projects
How do you get the bolts on in the middle of the coping without making a hole? Cheers
How did you fasten the bolts for the coping so far inside it?
They threaded the holes in the coping so just needed to screw the bolts in
I want to build this but wider. 6 ft or 8 ft wide. How wide can i go without adding another piece of transition in the middle complicating the build?
Ya
Great tutorial, but you should specify the amount of stagger on the radius board at minute 3:40; I used 6' radius and staggered by 9 1/2" but then the 48" deck ply was too short so I had to seam two pieces which is kind of a bummer. My guess is that the amount of stagger when you draw the radius is critical for the outcome. thx-
What do you mean by stagger?
At 4:44 shouldn’t he be marking at 23.25” to account for the deck’s .75” ply for a true 2’?
Otherwise when you go to lay down the surfacing you’ll come up short.
Can I Buy a set of plans for this ramp?
Where do I go to buy this and do u sell them
What is the list of materials? If I do a 3 foot what’s the radius?!
Where can I get the steel coping
Osha would not approve of the use of forklift. But I ain't osha and that was sick af.
Sick ramp, but this is a 1/8th pipe, no?
No
@@cutecandygames1874 A "quarter pipe" ramp is 1/4 of a circle, covering 90 degrees. This awesome ramp is an "eight pipe."
