DAY 8
So finally we get things figured out and got the camera and our usual close knit crew together, minus Shane. The biggest surprise this morning is Jarred is bald! I swear I’m starting to worry about that kid. An we ran out of Monsters! We buzzed through 12 cases in 6 months! Anyways starting around 9am Saturday morning we started building the last structural pieces for the mini mega ramp.

Promoting the recycling and reusing of wood throughout the project we found an old but still solid ¾ in piece of ply to use for our siding, it was actually 4 inches shorter and a 1ft less in width compared to there normal 4x8 foot dimensions. But it was just enough for us to cut out the 6 strips that we needed to build the runway after the landing bank and shorted us 1ft in length from the 24ft mark that we made.

So now were waiting. We will most likely paint and treat any exposed pieces of wood left and just wait till something happens with the rollin of the Scoff Project. Cause as of now the ramp is kicked off the hill and it may come to be that we will have to build our own levee, on our property to finally finish this project. This of course will put us over out budget so if any of you are psyched to see this little monster get finished, please helps us out and send us a small donation via Paypal. We promise to list you in the DVD on the credits as one of our close supporters.
