That looks like it's from the Philippines ;) look at the plate

I often see ramps similar to this (or even higher) at car dealerships. They use them to elevate a few of the cars for sale.

HEY - I'm looking at that right now! Page 162 has that corn burning stove I mentioned on Chad's thread about solar/wood stove/oil options.

Page 238 has similar ramps to the above ^^^....although not quite as long. Truck ones rated for 20T though.

There will be a recall on it for the lead paint :eek:.

I know of a set of the car dealers ramps someone threw over the side of the road. If I had a loader and a truck......

sometimes you can find a deal when a shop closes, guy down the road has a hydraulic lift from an old gas station.

I hate to be a killjoy, but in the OP's photo whoever made those should've welded in some diagonal stiffeners. Otherwise it's possible it could collapse like a parallelogram.:eek:

Very well could be MBeige.... but I think this member is from South America...

Good idea on those dealer ramps. See 'em all the time along our 28th St thorough fare.... only problem is where to put 'em. My HOA will kick me out of the neighborhood....
