Two rails I made, the first has shitty welds as my welder isn't the best but hey, it isn't the looks, it's whether they serve their purpose, the second is held together by "Quick Steel" a super useful tool if you have the means to cut metal but not weld, all it needs is a bit of paint. Post your thoughts.

Looks nice!

The flat bar looks tasty tbh.

I like that flat bar man.

Strictly speaking just a piece of wood (oiled beech - our kitchen table is made out of this - best surface i've skated so far), but the painting took some time.
Can't wait for the oil to dry (wich takes about seven days...   )
Hope, you like it!

I don't like it.














I love it!

my homemade quarters or halfpipe. the instruction i found on youtube.
i hope integrating the pix will work . I´m new to this. sorry for my horrible english:-)

pimp my ramp!

Those are sick man. I wish I could make my own stuff.

thanks bro. i love such little creative projects. i´ve seen your fb area and i´d like to ride it, especially the rail-bridge-ramps. i´ll post a few pics of mine, soon. maybe there are a few impressions for "own stuff" (cheap,simple and timesaving) in it. codeword cardboard;-)

Nice! Loving the graffiti art!

thanx. i still have some space on my br manualboxes. i´m looking forward to paint them and post some pix of it.

BRR Box.. didnt expect it to be so long

Hey you're back Gilly! BRR Box, lovely as always.

here´s  a big box i made, because i´ve had no idea what to do with the ledge and the rail (which were parts of a set from ebay). it´s cardboard filled with a lot of old jewel cases. the bank has a veneer topping and the ledge is removable, so i can use the rail from both sides. it took some time to make this thing, but i think it´s worth the time. it´s very stable and flows.

This is sick.

That thing is fuckin dopeee!!

thank you, guys. I love sharing ideas. i got a lot of inspiration from an old diy-park thread (what should be a halloffame, in my opinion) on this page. now, i wanted to give something (inspitation) back. this is an example what you can do, if you don´t have much money and many tools.

I got this in the mail today.

Its neat... I wish it was a little taller and longer though.

damn jon, that looks sick!

@Harlekin: that graffiti looks gnarly dude! Wish I could do stuff like that...

- Jono

thanx. if you, or someone else is really interested in learning graffiti. simple style isn´t that hard to learn. i was drawing a littlebit when i was younger. but i wasn´t very good. Now, at the age of 34 i wanted some nice ramps. so i looked around the internet for some graffiti-tutorials. i found it, and a few sketches later the first style (Quarter) was done. i did all the styles with simple felt-pens. then i sprayed clear lacquer over it. that´s it.

the other way to get nice surfaces: internet-graphics, color-printer, glue for the graphic and bonding sheet. like on my big box (above) or on this ones.

@ harlekin:
all your stuff is very nice! I always like handpainted graphics more, but the prints are cool, too - but they won't beat your graffittis!

Home made round bar talk about shitty welds my buddy zapped it together must not have had the machine set right because one of the legs came undone had zero penetration lmao gonna fix it soon.. but I also grinded the top since then and sanded it with a very fine grit for smoothness.. not a big fan of it honestly but you can do some nasty tail/nose slide to shove it out
