  • whats the spacing with the holes? Why didnt you build this out of steel btw? dont have a welder? I am ganna be building a monolift squat rack this spring. I'll post a vid of it when I am done. Be sure to check it out if you want!

  • the spacing is 3in on center. I would have built it out of steel if i could weld. If you are building it out of steel, I'm sure you could put the holes closer together.

  • That looks really good.. But you may as well have added a pull up bar!

  • I made my rack of steel without welding, I used screws! )))) Надо было просто немножко подумать

  • @zimmerman yeah if holds the camera at the top of his skull, now who does that? If its at eye level which makes sense, he's maybe 5'8 or 9

  • @JonathanBloggs And it never needs to be. No-one lifts 2000lb ;)

  • fucking cool man

  • that is really gud !

  • this cant be safe lol.... i remember the rack i had supported 600lbs and it was SOLID, rock solid out of heavy duty welds of chromoly.... yeah this freaks me out :D

  • very good.

    I'm from Brazil and made a similar power rack. But I used mountain climbing pulleys. And I made a low pulley. It's pretty good.

    I also did a plate holder.So it is quite longer than a normal rack power.

  • Nice job. Oak would have been the strongest wood, but cost prohibitive. I agree with coach: if you want to reinforce it, get a sheet of 4x8 ac plywood 3/4 of an inch thick and surround your pt lumber with it. But what you have now should last a long time.

  • @JonathanBloggs

    I compare them by weight, not by thikness
