well built indeed

 Over twenty-five years ago volunteers from a local church built and installed a wheel chair ramp in the garage of a friend of mine.  She had MS and was wheelchair bound so this was a huge help to her and her family.  Sadly she died last year so the ramp is no longer necessary.  Today I helped her husband to begin the process of disassembling it, with the idea that perhaps someone who needs it can have it, free, and reassemble it where needed.  This will also free up some space in his garage.  Little did we know, as we began this project, how really well built this ramp was.  After removing "thousands" of long strong screws, and many board feet of really sturdy lumber we are just about half finished.  Of course all of this lumber is being piled up in the garage along one wall, so I'm not sure, after all is finished, how much floor space will actually have been gained.  Please!!. Does anybody need a ramp?
