FAQ
Is RampNerd only for CNC users?
No. RampNerd outputs ready-to-cut DXFs for CNC and detailed dimensioned layouts for manual cutting (track saw/jigsaw). Side panels, holes, and join lines are shown clearly for hand tools. DXF reuse is allowed for unlimited personal builds; reselling/repackaging isn’t permitted.
Do you offer refunds?
RampNerd credits are non-refundable once purchased.
What does “project locks after finalize” mean?
Finalize = freeze. Your DXFs, cut sheets, and BOM match exactly and won’t drift. Want changes later? Start a new project. Finalize says, “this one’s ready to build.”
Why is pricing per-project instead of subscription?
Most people don’t build multiple ramps a year. Per-project lets you start and tinker for months at one price — no monthly meter. Pay once when you’re ready to commit; no subscription trap.
Are there hidden costs or extras?
No. One project = 50 credits. That unlocks everything: DXF cut files, cut guides, build guide, and BOM for both CNC and manual builds. No add-ons, no upsells, no subscription.
How much will my ramp cost?
Depends on size and materials. RampNerd gives a live BOM + cost as you design: enter local prices for sheets, 2×4s, coping, screws, finish — totals update in real time. No surprise bill at the yard.
What transition radius should I use?
A 3′ ramp with a 5′ radius rides quick/steep; 6′ is mellower. Many DIY builds go too tight (near-vert). RampNerd shows a live safe-zone that auto-updates with your drop and gives radius feedback — but it never locks you in. Set any radius you want.
How long should the flat bottom be?
Longer flat = more pump/setup; too short rides dead. For a 3′ ramp, 8–12′ is comfy; under 6′ feels cramped. RampNerd gives flat-bottom feedback (no guesswork) but doesn’t force it — tune it to your space and feel.
How much should the coping stick out?
Target 3/8″ (≈10 mm) — that’s the most consistent lock-in for skate. 1/4″ is beginner-friendly (fewer hangups) but makes locking grinds trickier. RampNerd gives coping-reveal feedback and solves the install math; BMX/inline can choose a different reveal for their preferred lock-ins.
How wide should my ramp be, and how deep should the decks be?
Width: 8′ is the classic home width (flows well, fits sheets). 4–6′ works in tight spots but feels cramped for grinds. Wider sessions better. Decks: aim for 3–4′ minimum; 4′+ if you can. RampNerd outputs separate left/right platform boards cut to size.
Will all the pieces fit on standard plywood sheets?
Yes. RampNerd nests every part inside your chosen sheet size (4×8 ft / 1220×2440 mm by default). Small ramps can get a full side in one piece; larger ones split at stud lines for strength. No cuts running off a sheet.
Does RampNerd work in metric and imperial?
Yes. Switch metric ↔ imperial anytime; values convert exactly (3′ = 91.4 cm, 8′ = 244 cm). Sheet presets cover both systems so plans stay accurate either way.
