hey guys, i have to say, i watched this video and got inspired. i literally found a bed frame sticking out of a neighbor's trash can a few days ago. i borrowed an angle grinder from a neighbor (literally). he showed me how to use it. instead of building a grind box like you did, i got a 4x4 post from home depot. cut it down to the length of the bed rails -- about 5 1/2 feet -- and put the rails on both sides of the 4x4. added some short 2x4 cut offs for feet and stability and the thing ROCKS! i spray painted and waxed the rails and it slides so fast i can barely stay on it! super stoked. thanks for the tutorial and keep doing 'em! btw, i'm 48 years old and got back into skating last year to teach my 2 little boys how to ride. loving it.

[@myhousehaswheels]

This is the type of content I live for. Would love to see you make a QP outta junk.

[@FreudianQuip]

I think that's a much harder ask because you need decent plywood and a lot of 2x4s cut to specific length. I'm sure you could still do it on the cheap but it's gonna be hard to make a sturdy decent qp that's worth the time and effort out of cheap garbage.

[@d1surv]

@@FreudianQuip I agree, for a qp you’d have to be a lot more precise and specific. But I don’t doubt that someone could for cheap! I’ve even seen some with pvc pipes that perform well

[@itsdakota6442]

besides some good ply wood and some screws everything else could be made out of a pallet

[@FreudianQuip]

@@itsdakota6442 you're correct the problem is that quarter pipes take longer to build, it's probably not worth the time investment to use shitty potentially warped pallet wood that probably won't hold up as well over time

[@myhousehaswheels]

@@FreudianQuipit can certainly be done.

yo mad respect on this one. Out here in savannah georgia we dont have a solid diy and the park is half ass. Gonna make a ledge from this and hopefully sparks a flame with the scene, stay easy - Ben

[@sammymendoza820]

You guys are awesome for showing kids who may not be able to afford your products how to enjoy skating at a low budget cost. I will continue to support your company and it’s products due to your humble attitude! Thank you Keen Ramps.

[@Pometpower]

I build so many skate ramps, kickers, and ledges with my friends, the pallets are easy to take from like schools and are great for supports!

[@nikosoup7999]

If you have a new store being built by you when they’re stocking up there will be huge mountains of pallets that you can take if you’re fast

[@keenramps]

good tip!

[@averyprice9422]

Back in the late 80's there was a neighborhood being built (Point Mallard Estates). My friend's mom would take his older brothers over there and we built a huge half pipe in his back yard with all the wood they were boosting from the houses...

This is 100% amazing and Cory is such a solid dude for offering this kind of transparency. Honestly, could not be more stoked to have watched this! One thing....The local Library in my area just sent out an email saying that they are offering tools for a one-week rental now...I thought that was amazing so I donated some old tools that I had to them so that is a new option too!

[@vackz898]

he says my friends wouldn’t be excited to skate it while me and my friends get excited to skate a curb, that box would be sick

[@uplecsolutions7063]

Exactly! I live in Australia. Don’t think the shipping is in my budget! Thank u for ur generosity! Love it

[@brsoo]

Fun video! We used to make our own ramps as we lived on dirt roads. So our skatepark was our driveway.. Pro tip; screw 2-3 2x4s on the other side and then take 2 PVC pipes and screw them on top. It makes a raised flat rail on the other side. This is fun for board slides and such

[@acecoulter252]

Coming from a smaller town that doesn’t have any parks this information is so appreciated. I’m definitely gonna try to make one

[@SkatingwithAaron]

Might be heavy but this is an awesome idea for a box! I might try to make this myself for some quick driveway sessions!

[@nolandreesen7384]

I love how they are telling us how to make one if we are not going to buy one of theirs instead of just saying by one of theirs

[@LVDesert584]

I first need to learn how to not to kill myself on the ground and then I would def order a box from you guys

I realize that I'm late to this video, but... Its was super helpful and I plan on using it as a reference for my friends new box. Props to these two legends for giving out some of there trade secrets, and proving that not all companies are greedy, definitely subscribing.

[@soulsteela01]

That's so great. Reminds of my old school times where making our own was the only option. What a great feeling that was.

[@holdemdang]

The hot tip about being near new construction is huge. I live at the Jersey shore and dumpster dive often where i'm working. Been finding that plastic wood for decking lately. Gonna make a weather proof box from free stuff this week. Tnx for the video. Great inspiration. (And I'd still give you guys business if I have the extra scratch.)

[@analog_memories]

Incredible video guys, thanks for putting this knowledge out there. I grew up making janky pallet boxes and now that I'm 35 I still make janky pallet boxes haha. Although, the cover sheet idea was never on my radar. That's an insider knowledge pro tip right there. I'm gonna hit up the local hardware stores and see if I can snag a few.

[@lisaschippers3756]

im so glad this video blew up, yall are to underrated:)

Man this brought back memories puzzle piece in borrowed lumber to make skate ramps my mom asking where my bedframe went because we used it for coping Hits me right in the feels

[@holdemdang]

I reclaim furniture and just got back into skating. This video reaffirms my shifting gears into trying to make boxes/ramps out of my finds. Now just to find primo cheap sheathing. Love the coping idea. Totally stealing that. Ty. Lolz. Skate or die

[@nicholasmercado6545]

Gotta remember screws and nails cost money!! That never gets mentioned 🤣 love these videos. As a Marylander we claim Dan Corrigan btw!

[@wesrundle6326]

This was a great idea for a video, I will be using pallets, but I wont be using whole pallets as it makes it quite heavy. If you can find longer 8ft pallets, disassemble, de-nail and use less wood will make for a lighter more mobile box! Great work guys! The bed frame tip was what pushed me to move forward to create a budget box! thank you!

I bought a long pallet and its decently wide. I drilled plywood on top and it works like charm.

[@r_rod.]

I used pallets, a piece of skatelight from the park that had closed down, and some scavenged angle iron. It was actually prefect to learn everything and we were stoked

[@jakev2361]

The fact that they went out of their way to show us how to make ramps that THAY SELL, just to help other people out, what an amazing company

[@JohnDoe-fy9cv]

In order to prevent the pallet planks from splitting, drive in the screw in reverse to start with to make an initial hole and "heat cauterise" it to strengthen, then set drill back to normal and drive the screw in, it shouldn't split.

[@Itsblase01]

Reverse psychology on market sales love it!

[@xpndblhero5170]

I made a big box and 2 ramps to make it a box jump out of those blue pallets but I dismantled them and just used them as building material.... Much more flexibility in the design but also harder, this is a great beginners build. I also made curb guards, basically you can screw 2 1"x4"x8' at an angle and put angle iron/bed rail on the edge as coping and use it on a curb or the edge of a wall w/o damaging the wall... It was a way to use a specific spot w/o leaving telltale marks so we never got kicked out.

[@SkatingwithAaron]

Great idea with the bed frame! I would have never thought about that! Thanks for sharing!

[@flyfisherneil5201]

Went to a new construction site in my area, one house had a couple of piles of scrap wood. Asked permission and walked away with a bunch of nice 2x6s 🙌🏽

[@pscaught]

You guys should do a series on how to repurpose the pallets your ramps ship with. I just received 2 quarter pipes and now the pallet it came with is definitely getting turned into a manny pad with some angle iron on the edge

I’m making one similar with the bed frame and if you don’t have a grinder but you have a drill and bits you can look up how to drill out rivets. It was a little weird at first but worked after I got the hang of it.
