i just found 3 8' by 9.5" borads in my garage. i wanna make the kinks fairly mellow, so do u think they are long enough?

 
probably, depends on how high you want it, how long you want it and if that's all the material you have to work with.
 
ailright, i just worked on the frame

each section is 6' long. i already mad the flat part which is 2'7" high

the up is gonna start at 1'1"

the down will end at 1'7"
 
i screwed uo the up part because tension on the top board but a 5" crack in it. I think im gonna need to recut all the angles, and i dont have ower tools (i only have a drill). i think i need a power saw to cut good clean angles
 
so that one board still has a crack in it, but im using it anyway. im just going to reinforce it from the bottom.

i ordered HDPE yesterday, but heres the frame. Im going to use stakes and plywood to stabilize it

my garage is pretty messy from building haha
 
i got the HDPE yesterday. its real thin so screws wont work. so do u think liquid nails would be good?

im also givng it some diagonal support, feet

im probably gonna drill a hole on each foot so i can stake it into the ground
 
screw will work

its wood underneath

if not

go to homedepot and just ask them whats the best to use

make sure to say for winter use
 
alright so i hit it yeesterday with ice rink snow but i didnt get enough speed to get the flat because it was 55 and raining. ill have to get pics of the finished box up soon
