This is not a home depot product. This is industrial material. I bought my unistrut material used from craigslist

Hey this is an exellent idea. I was wondering if you could make a video telling us how the rack was build, what materials you used and the measurements of the rack.

I was planning to buy one but after watching your video I realize that it can actually be build. please

@AllysonDuarte12 OK, I'll see what I can do in the next few days Allyson..

Thank you. What I did change was the weight tree height. I extended the bar that the weights go on all the way to the top. It was about half way of the total height of the whole rack. This gave me more adjustment room for people with a different reach. Everything else turned out good. The width of mine was 36” because I have standard weights not Olympic. The Olympic bar is wider.

great job, how thick are the frame beams??

@XMasLeeX

I used uni-struts. standard is 1 5/8 X  1 5/8

How did you secure the cross safety bar to the upright? (0:33 sec)

This is exactly what I did! I didn't have the small catchers I just have the rail that I adjust as and when I need too. Works just as good but alot cheaper

where do you buy the frame? I've gone to Home Depot and Lowes and no matter how much time I take or how many associates I ask, nobody can find this kind of frame for the Power Rack I want to build. Help!
