I am almost complete my mini backyarder. The rain here really killed my work on it over the holiday weekend. I still need to put the last 2 layers of ply on the surface but my son couldn't wait to ride it.

after you add the last two layers, add another 40 feet of width and a full loop.
Man, you've got yard for days  |

Yeah, I have room for all of that, just not the will to do that much construction. I'm not made for manual labor. |

Thanks. I figure I'll be a cool dad until he's a teenager... haha.
Here's a question for all the ramp owners.
I just finished the ramp today and will probably paint it tomorrow. Should I use paint or something like Thompson's Water seal to protect it? Any advice welcomed. |

I'd go to Home Depot or Lowes and get exterior "Oops" paint by the cashiers. You can usually get the best brands of paint for $5.00 a gallon. However, the colors may be hideous as a horse's pa-toot. |
