Homemade ramp/work table

[DougXS2]

Thought some of you guys might be interested in seeing the work table I just built from the online plans that are floating around....

the plans call for using 3/4 ply but I used two solid core office doors because, I already had one for free, and thought it might be significantly stronger. Its incredibly sturdy.

i dont think that this could be any more truer than now....

 

[cros36]

hah, beat me to it.

 

[DougXS2]

whats that....

 

[DougXS2]

I think I had to reduce the size....can you see the pic now?
I can.

yeah, im just really board. hows the ramp work? i mean, i get how it works, but hows it working for you?

 

[DougXS2]

ha! saves my back!!! I never guessed it would make such a diff. I always wondered why I just never could get in the 'groove' of working on bikes, mowers, 4 wheelers, etc.

I think it was the bending down that was doing it.

looks nice... but work tables are really not to expensive. Northern tool has them cheap...

I got one from Harbor Freight, and it works great. I had a coupon for $299, normally $499. The only thing I did was add a better front wheel stand to it, the one that came with is not good for anything.

Two sheets of 3/4 inch plywood are like $50. A few minutes of your time and it works gret and takes up just a few inchs of floor space when not used.
