Take the top and cut it to a 1 1/2 X 2 to act as a stop.

OK now that we have had the time to give our thoughts on this idea I now feel as I did in the beginning it is ok with me for him to have what he wants to have. Nice job but his shop is way too clean for me or how mines is most of the time.

I think there is a law against clean shops like that.

Yeah....looks like mine and I bet you can put your hand on just about anything you might need at any given time.....my son is always critical of me keeping junk and every piece of scrap wood or trim left over from a project, but then my phone doesn't stop ringing when he needs something and is pretty sure it can be found in my shop.

Get the same "jaw flappin'" from TOWTA and my boys. But I usually tell them right where to find whatever it is they want or seem to be able to fix whatever they want fixed.

Not too much one can do other than carry things to get the wheels up so it will be level.
I use common wood boards. They work fine.

Look closely at the picture again. That welded stainless steel piece that fits into the end of the ramp is the stop. That way I don't worry about driving off of the end if I am leveling by myself.
PS not my shop but I will pass on your comments to my friend.

I went deer hunting for a week. While gone ex-wife decided her and the kids would do me a favor.. You guessed it, they "cleaned" my shop. It took me over a month to find everything! Oh yes, I was mad!!
