For those needing home equipment ideas...my set-up

[sergeant_81]

Hey all,

Finally finished off the home gym I've been working on piecemeal for a few months. Bought a bench today.

The bench, pull-up/dip station, and bar were bought (of course)...the squat and bench posts were built with wood, concrete, a couple of 5-gallon buckets, L-brackets, and other assorted thingamajigs. It's not pretty by any means, but it does the job.

I've test-loaded it to 400 pounds so far (not that I'm lifting that much). Works like a charm!

What did you spend on it?

Sarge, did you knit the Snoopy towel?

Bar and bench totaled about $200. The pull-up and dip station was bought a very long time ago; I think it was around $50. The squat/bench stands were built with junk that had been laying around in the garage for years.
