Hi Ken ,,,,,,,,,no worries, no offence taken mate ,,,,,,,,,,some days I just speak whats on my mined
I did think of all the angles / pros and cons when I made them , as they have to deal with a very wide variety of wheel types/sizes/material and loads from a few Kgs to several thousand Kgs .
So no slots/ holes in the top deck . cutting holes in the sides well they could only go at the thick end of the wedge , that puts them in a place that would make them ok for a vertical lift from the floor ,but nothing else ,or unless your Andrew and cant get a grip to turn a wee ramp on edge . The holes/slots in that position would be useless for carrying the ramps around ,much better to carry them vertically by the strategically placed cross member,easier to carry them vertically by the thin end as the stand up fine on the fat end , so no point having a slot on that face . So that ruled side / end slots out .
As for any type of sticky out handle well that would probably just get hung up on gear in the back of the van .
I used them today with no problems on a couple of sites with different types of machine , so I will have them independently tested for insurance purposes tomorrow .
Cheers Rob
