go to the build a jib 101 cult, think thats what its called. they have a bunch of threads on it. but my friends and i have a few pvc rails and they have worked great! we made a box and it is pretty sick. was not that much either. for the box i think the pvc was 12 bucks or something and we got the wood for free. we have someothers that have worked great to. i have a pic of the box in my profile if you want to check it out.

i know we were thinking about buying a rail from a welder but it ended up to be a shit load and we figured a pvc box would be sick and cheap instead of buying a smaller rail for a ton more.

probably like 50-70 bucks for the ramp. you need like 1 sheet of turf, then make a ladder out of 2 x4s and staple or gorilla glue enough turf to cover each horizontal bar of the ladder... then just try to use common sense as far as building a platform to drop from.

i was in home depot the other day and astroturf was $0.44 a square foot. so you could cover a decent space for not too much

Rails are good if you can find a cheap deal but otherwise pvc is just as good
