So like the title says, Im trying to build a miniramp. For those of you who have miniramps and similar wooden bicycle playgrounds at home, where did you get all of your wood from? I have built quarter-pipes before and have a decent amount of experience with woodwork, but the real problem for me would be getting all the wood, as the ramp I am planning to construct would require alot... Buying it all from home depot or a lumber yard would be way out of my price range. Maybe get in contact with contractors and see if they have any extra/scrap wood they don't need? I'm looking to build a ramp similar to this one:
I've roughly estimated that a ramp of those dimensions would cost well over $400 in wood if I were to purchase from a hardware store or lumber yard.. I know I have seen at least a few people on here with fun looking ramps at their house, how did you guys go about building them? Any advice/suggestions are appriciated.
