I built mine this afternoon. My total was more like 70. Granted prices have changed since this video was made, but I also opted for 2"x2"s instead of the 1"x2"s. Also picked up some Liquid Nail to add to the ends and on top of the cross bars. Worked out great though.. thanks to this 'how to' video!

Hands down, , best instructional video on YouTube that has ever been created, regardless of the subject matter. Thank you buddy, thank you for helping me plan out my next trip to Home Depot

[craigbaker]

I built mine today. $40.07 at Home Depot. I’m running a Rlaarlo Omni-Terminator on it. Works great. Thanks for the video.

Textbook ramp build mate, you can't go wrong with a ramp like that. Totally agree it's beneficial to have a regular launch when you're 1st learning. Great stuff mate 👍🏻

Thanks for the build design. Worked perfectly and is so light and strong. I built it today in a few hours (07-22-23). The longest part was getting the glue on and letting it dry overnight. You were spot on as far as the cost goes. My build cost me $45.68 from HD. I did have a few 1"x2" strips around so that helped. All-in -all, fantastic design. I always thought I would need thicker and heavier wood but you really don't. Small enough to easily transport in my truck bed. I made the ramp size 3'x3'x1.5'. Thanks again and have a good day.

Great little tutorial for an easy build. My 11yr old son wants to build one for his Traxxas Sledge, and this will be perfect. Thanks for putting this video together.

Great video and great response to the critics.

The double screws going into the 1x2's can be remedied by adding screws down the middle of the ramp, into the 1x2's.

Loved how you explained everything GREAT VIDEO. Thanks

[Grandpasrcbarn]

Awesome video awesome editing and explains very well I’m surprised your channels not bigger than it is

[WadeHumphries]

Just built mine! Turned out great, thx man

[jedwagner]

I just used this plan to build one for myself. Hit it with a Traxxas Stampede and a Maxx for about 30 minutes. The main surface is already damn near destroyed from the Maxx body. Easy enough fix though, just needs significantly more horizontal 1x2s for support. I had about 3" between each and the middle portion is destroyed. Gonna basically have the 1x2s touching each other when I add more tomorrow.

Particle board is nice and flexible, but definitely needs additional support.

You indicate width of 3-4’. Can you translate relative to the size of any particular car (1:8, 1:12, 1:18 etc)? Like 3x width of your truck, or whatever? Also, how about length of ramp relative to size of truck? At least 2 or 3x length of vehicle? Awesome job!

Just what I was looking for! Wanna build some ramps since the "premade" stuff is ridiculously priced. I'm sure prices are up, but still probably the cheapest and most efficient ramp build on a budget. Thanks! 👍

[Hungrybird]

That one support in the center is keen

[rcmortyhobbies]

I’m building one in a day or so. Going to jump my 6 and 8s trucks. Thanks for the detailed instructions.

[frankrivers]

Great video love the details it’s been a ver big help 👍

[skydemon]

I did 35° and it was perfect for my buddies 1/16 but too steep for his 1/8 monster. But it was fun and held up to the abuse!

[jeronimo]

Great breakdown! I had planned on using 1/2 inch ply for the sides but now im thinking I should go thinner.. Also I was going to add some wood glue along the seams under neath.
