Building a Private Ramp: Final

On June 10, 2011, a private mini-ramp called "La Embajada" was resurfaced and resealed with masonite.  The ramp was previously surfaced with a 1/4" layer of ply coated in polyurethane(on top of the two layers of 3/8" plywood) as the final layer.  Here is the process of layering the final layer...
Sweeping the tar-paper off to lay down the masonite.  Tar-paper is used under the shingles on roofs to keep water from getting to the wood.

 Progress. Almost complete!
 He has a sick mini in his backyard, and he doesn't even understand how cool that is!
