How are you screwing the ply to the metal frame?
Love to see a closeup of that. |

all plys are being screwed straight to the frame.
we're using sheet metal screws that have drill tips built into them.
specifically... #12 zinc plated self drilling flat phillips head sheet metal screws in 1", 1 and 1/2", and 2" for each layer respectively. |

With the price of Real Estate in NYC, y'all gonna lease out the space under the decks?
Very nice, very nice indeed! |

I hope you put the top masonite or whatever layer on diagonally. And I wish it was a vert ramp.
But I would ride that every damn day and night. Proper mini ramp.

That's awesome. Post some vid when it's done.
Curious to see if it's gonna be fast enough with such mellow transition and all that flat. |

im amazed how awesome the stuff skates, worth the $$ if it holds up any better than wood imo and im sure it will.
so goddamn tired from 9 hours sheeting and 2 hours skating the BEST mini ive ever ridden
still have to do the skatelite on the platforms but thats cake.
