DIY Loading Ramps - Heavy Duty

[@methods-SE]

Lol - I was morbidly interested until I saw how large of a tractor he intended to back down the ramps! Well done, that far exceeds my requirements and its only $15 in wood + scrap metal. Thanks for pointing out that long ramps put ALL the load on the wood while shorter ramps split the load. That adjusted my plans.

Awesome! Thanks

Hey brother nice work. The only thing I see as a weakness is that your heavy duty brackets are on TOP of the wood. When the tractor is below the top bracket the only thing holding the weight of the tractor is the washers and the nuts from ripping through the wood. A slight modification would be to put that strong steel under the wood to support the whole plank. Great video. Thanks. Stay safe.

Hey Sean, new subscriber here. Great little video. I need to build a ramp for my e250 eventually, so that I can pull heavy things into it. I like your idea. Looking forward to more content.

Nice job! Now if only I had a plasma cutter 🤔

[@appalachiandiy2415]

Grinder cut wheel or a torch set works too.

first off your board should be on top, all you have holding the weight is your bolts just saying
