Not much of a craftsman but I'm pretty proud of this... - Page 3

We installed a doggy door but fat-ass, our 10 yr old wiener dog, can't make it to the door itself when going from out to in. So.... I built her a ramp today. Took me about 3 hours from design to completed product.

I used scraps from the fence we just put up to build it.

Front View

Side View

Just going to lay down some sand paper tommorow so she can get some grip and actually make it up the ramp.

No, I really do suck. I'm only about half as good as I claim.

That still leaves room for you to be really good.

Realizing that it's a slab house, I still have to make this joke:

He didn't want to let the air out of the tires enough to lower his house that far.

On a side note, don't put sandpaper on there. The dog will hate it and might even quit using it altogether. Additionally it will rot and wear off in a month or two and won't do jack s**t in the winter.

They have several products at your local hardware store specifically for giving a surface traction.

It might be easy for you bud but I am not a handy man in any way shape or form.... my talents lay elsewhere.

On the other hand, give me a completely disassembled computer and I'll have it up and running in no time.

I can assemble that computer, build that ramp and still be able to watch the last 3 quarters of the football game.
