  • The entire video was devoted to finding things wrong with one ramp. Most of us are looking for specs on what TO DO RIGHT. Especially for temporary or portable ramps for motorized wheelchairs.

  • @kosmos1957

    You're right, that was the focus. The site in the description includes a full design and construction manual for easily built modular ramps.

  • Thanks

  • These ramps look like all the ramps in my area, steep, narrow turns, loose boards, 1 to 4 inch drops at the bottom, bottom exits into dirt, carpet scraps stapled on, no room to open the door. But if it weren't for these ramps, we'd have no ramps at all.

  • Design flaws can be very informative. One overlooked practical function can mar the whole project. Thanks for the info. Peace

  • Thanks for making this video. A lot of people (and businesses!) do not realize what "accessible" really means
