Concrete is not too complicated, just cut forms, build dirt, crack a beer, have a smoke, shovel concrete, skreet, and develop finishing skills with trowel. Do that shit. I'll post some pictures of my shit after the coping is on.

Carter Member	# Posted: 3 Nov 2009 09:45 Reply Cthru, Check out the Patterson Park mini ramp built in Austin, TX last year. 5' tall by 24' wide. This costs about 15 grand because they had to get stamped construction docs. The two biggest expenses were fill dirt and of course the concrete. http://www.austinpublicskatepark.org/skatepark_gal lery/v/patterson_mini_ramp/?g2_page=1
