[Shop-talk] trailer ramps

[Pat Horne]

  Steve,

How about drilling holes in the angle at the back and using bolts to 
lock the ramps in place. That way you can move the ramps in and out as 
needed.

To keep track of the bolts, weld a small chain to them and the other end 
to the trailer or ramp.

Peace,
Pat
