Step1 Decide on the kind of plan you want. You can buy inexpensive plans to build a skateboard mini-ramp, or sketch out your own plans.
Step2 Plan the size of the skateboard mini-ramp to build. Most mini-ramps are 8 feet wide and a bit over 2 feet tall.
Step3 Find a large workspace for your plans and tools. == Step1 Place a piece of 3/4-inch plywood on a flat surface. Draw a straight line up the right-hand side, measuring to the highest point of the mini-ramp. This is usually about 24 to 28 inches.
Step2 Draw another straight line out to the left toward the center of your plywood board, measuring about 2 feet. This is the deck.
Step3 Sketch a straight line along the bottom of the skateboard mini-ramp, about 5 feet. This is the bottom of the mini-ramp.
Step4 Connect the top of the deck to the endpoint of the bottom using a curved line for the ramp. It is a good idea to use a half-circle drawing tool so the curve is true. == Step1 Cut along the lines using a skil-saw so the curves are smooth.
Step2 Repeat on a second piece of plywood for the other side.
Step3 Connect the two sides with 2-by-4's. Make sure they are at intervals frequent enough to support the mini-ramp.
Step4 Use a single sheet of 3/8-inch plywood for the actual mini-ramp section, bending it to fit over the curve.
Step5 Finish rough edges.

there are several types of ramps you can build but i think iff you just have a garden or garage you may want to build a mini ramp.for an 8' wide one you will need:
2x4 studs(8') 67
2x6 studs(8') 6
4x4 studs(6') 8
Plywood-1/2" 18
Plywood-3/4" 8
Masonite-1/4" 9
Nails(16d) 1,000
Screws(2" wood) 500
Coping(2 3/8"o.d. 16'
This will depend on the size of the Mini Ramp. The usual is 4' for the beginner ones. The following will apply for the supplies:
Three 4'x8' sheet of 3/4" plywood
Four 4'x8' sheets of 3/8" plywood
Thirty 8' 2x4's
two 16" black steel pipes
A bunch of screws and a drill
A pencil
A tape measure
Something to cut the pieces with
The required safety gear
itll take some money but just make a down ramp on s medium angle and a then a quarter pipe
