More and more modern adolescents, as well as adults, are beginning to get involved in fingerboarding, learning the technique of performing a variety of tricks using a miniature board and their own fingers. However, for most tricks, just a fingerboard will not be enough for you - many tricks are performed on a special ramp, which can be purchased in the store for a lot of money, or you can make it yourself.
It is necessary
- - wooden blocks,
- - fiberboard sheet,
- - furniture corners,
- - self-tapping screws,
- - screwdriver,
- - rope,
- - cylindrical can,
- - heavy object for drying the ramp.
Instructions
Step 1
Cut a rectangle of the desired size from the fiberboard, and then place the rectangle in boiling water for a few minutes. When the fiberboard is completely wet, begin to gently fold the cut-out sheet around a 3-liter glass jar. Bend one end of the sheet first and then the other, until you get a bend angle of about 90 degrees.
Step 2
Tie the future ramp tightly with a rope, remove the can, and, without undoing the rope that fixes the workpiece in the desired position, set the ramp to dry on a flat surface, with the edges down. Place a heavy object on top of the ramp.
Step 3
Dry the ramp for twelve hours. While it dries, prepare the supports on which it will hold. To do this, grind four identical wooden blocks, having previously measured the length and height of the ramp. Make the height of the bars 0.5 cm lower than the finished measurements in order to slightly stretch the finished ramp.
Step 4
Having made the supports, proceed to the manufacture of platforms for moving into the ramp. To do this, cut out two plates from the fiberboard, equal to 10 cm long and equal to the width of your ramp. Saw out wooden blocks to secure the pads from the underside.
Step 5
After the ramp sheet is dry, nail it to the supports by screwing in the screws from above. Then nail the ramp bars around the edges of the ramp to hold the exit ramps and finally reinforce the ramp platforms. Using sandpaper, sand the edges of the ramp, polish it, cover it with varnish or paint.
