Question

Can this be made to be 20 feet long by four feet high?

Community Answer

Of course, but 20x4 wood would be a bit hard to find at a store.

Question

How do I bend good one-side plywood that's a half inch thick?

Community Answer

You can wet it (soak it in water because doing so makes the wood more flexible) and then apply glue on the edge of the wood that is going to be the side of the ramp. Then gradually nail or screw it on, making sure to clamp it down or press it in place with a weight so that it takes the form that you want it to have. Be careful, though, as you may break it if you don't proceed patiently or if you wet it too little.
