My husband and I were looking for exactly this kind of project to build out our home gym and we have plenty of scrap 2x4s! Thank you! May be good to list the cut list. Thanks again!
I just made a racked based on your design and am really pleased with it. I drilled some holes in the top of the verti al supports to hold black pipe so that I could stack some weight plates. Thanks!
thank you for using a tripod and for showing the finished rack. so many of the other videos look like they were filmed during an earthquake so you can't really even see the end result
Thanks for the idea. I made a version of your design for a similar set of dumbbells and kettlebells. It is a very cost efficient design. I only changed the bottom portion, as I used the 3/4 strips that came out of the rails as runners in the bottom to support smaller weights. Added 2 more 2x4 pieces in the bottom for stability, and it all came out of the same 2x4s. Thanks again for the design
Awesome! There are probably many ways to improve on the design. I’m glad you found some inspiration with it!
Hi Pedro. Do you have picture of your design you can share ?
You did a fine job! It looks great, it looks strong and it does the job!
I used this design over all the other ones with scrap, warped wood. It’s not as pretty as yours, but it gets the job done and puts wood I would’ve otherwise not used to work. Thanks for sharing!
Nice work! I frequently use scrap wood for projects around the house. If it works don’t knock it!
Awesome video! Just made this today and instead of staining I put all the boards through a shou-sugi-ban treatment, scraping char off with a wire brush before assembly.
Hey man, looks great. I will adjust it to my needs, since I have more kettle bells than dumbbels. :)
I just completed this! Will post pictures on here and tag you (if that’s possible). Didn’t have a table saw so I wasn’t able to add the notches on the top shelf like you, but other that that, followed your steps to a tee, and very happy with the final result. Thanks so much!
Awesome! I’m excited to see it!

@@DakotaBusy Link to my FB post ^^ I made it public so you could see
@@soccerlpg20 Nice work!
Exactly what I was looking for! Thanks for the video. Going to make mine similar to your but more vertical and not as wide. Probably do three tiers with the bottom same holding kettlebells and weighted ball.
Great job looking good
Nice job.
Very good and well explained instructions. Thanks for shearing.
Quality woodworking!
Thanks J!
Very nice. My girlfriend has been after me about buying a DB rack. This is nicer and a whole lot less expensive!
Great video!!! This is great for a home gym! Great way to save money!!
This is awesome. I’m planning on making something similar. Thanks for sharing.
I hope it goes well! Good luck!
Very nice and simple. I like that.
Thank you Rob!
Super satisfying, nice.
Looks great man I'm gonna build one
That's clean .looks great well done
What a handy guy💯
Beautiful
Thank you
Nice! I am doing this!
Nice job 👌🏼🤘🏼
Thanks!
can this design be used if i hang it on wall?
Great job. I'll never have all these tools to build my own! =/
I think you could make one with a simple circular saw. Maybe I should make another video showing how this could be done. Thanks for watching!
I built one with cheap circular saw and few clamps, worth the investment
Nice work bro!
While cutting you said the bottom v rack was 33" wide but it looks like those are mounted inside the side supports and the top rack is mounted outside the side supports. Is the top rack actually 33" wide and bottom V rack 30" wide?
Sorry if I misspoke. The top on mine is 32" and the v rack is 29". In the end, scale it to what ever size works for you. I would decide how big the top rack needs to be first, lay out all your weights on some 2x4s and see what makes sense. Build it, measure for the v rack and cut it to fit. Best of luck and thanks for watching!
Do you have a materials list?
Badazz dude
I bought a Shellac spray (rather than the 50/50 mix of shellac and denatured alcohol), and the finish was not as great as the one you did! So to anyone wanting to make this, recommend sticking to what was recommended ^ or at least a liquid finish that you use a brush to apply, rather than an aerosol
Can you do pull-ups on power rack?
Why do you dilute the shellac 50/50 with denatured alcohol? Is it so it penetrates the wood better or a more even coating or both? Just curious. Thanks. Nice work.
I believe I saw that combination in a video from Make Something. I’ve had good luck with. Not sure on the exact reason. Might be that it dries faster so you can more quickly get the layers on.
@@DakotaBusy Thanks
Thank you so much for the inspiration and how-to. I enjoyed the project.
What size / type screws did you use? I used #9 - 2-1/2" with a 3/32" pilot drill bit...
I think the rack could be a bit longer to hold more dumbbells, it comes out smaller than it looks in the video. With larger kettle bell (25kg), the 45 deg angle bottom is too large and the kettlebell tips over, could be better using a flat bottom shelf if you are storing larger kettles.
Thanks again!!
I believe they were 3" wood screws. Avoid sheetrock screws as those tend to be brittle and won't be as strong.
The screws in shear won’t be strong enough for heavy dumbbells.
Feel free to use some glue or a large bolt going all the way through. I knew I wasn't going to have too much weight on mine so build yours accordingly.
😎cool,like!
Cool idea, however this guy makes me nervous with his caliver way around his table saw. Did he unplug the saw when leaning into it? Using your fingers to push wood is dangerous with a table saw.
In time, we will be calling him, "Stubs." If he cuts them off real short, "Nubs!" 🤣🤣🤣
What's the bit you use that has the drill and the flushmount thing (can't remember the name right now) so that the screw goes in flush? Thanks.
Countersink drill bits. Thanks for watching!
Great idea! Gonna use this plan. What were the dimensions of where you connected the top horizontal supports to the vertical ones that had the notches made to create the angle?
Thanks! So the side vertical pieces are 2' long. The higher horizontal support is 1/2" from the top and the other slightly lower one is 2" from the top. I just did what ever looked good to me so feel free to adjust.
The chanfreins did you use a router for it?
Or the rotatory tool ?
I just used a random orbital sander to knock off the sharp edges.
Hello what kreg jig and clamp are you using ?
Hey, I used these:

Is that the California Casual Patio Side Table at the end of the video?
Good catch! Yes it is. I followed the guide from the weekend woodworkers.
@@DakotaBusy Same, I was like that looks familiar?? Keep up the good work.
I never got the necessity of the shape many racks have. Why not just a BOARD to place them weights on and a board on the lower end of it to hinder the dumbells from falling down ... why always this kind of "two-edge"-system? It just does not accomodate the FULL range of weights.
Could it be simplified? sure. The two-edge approach I used has a clean look and locks the weights into place in all directions. This solution is great for those with a small set of lighter weights. Once you go bigger and have a full range, you probably want to use a commercial rack or make a much beefier rack based on your specific ones. In the end, use what works for you.
Great idea brother! I'm getting ready to cut these 2x4's. I didn't understand what the 33" cuts were for. Sorry for my ignorance
I'm glad you like the idea! the 33" board where what I used for the v-rack at the bottom. You don't have to do it that way and could get away with just one to help tie it together if you don't want to have any storage at the bottom.
@@DakotaBusy Right, but I like yours. All I plan im doing is adding an extra beam for additional dumbbells. That way if we get more somehow it will already be prepped for that.
lovely, but you need a fair few tools to do it. Ill just leave them on the mats for now lol.
"a fair few"? Is that a thing? Maybe you mean "a fair amount of".
You can build this with a cordless drill, square and a hand saw.
Instead of cutting notches in the 2x4 with a table saw, use a 1x4 & a 1x3 stacked together. Instead of cutting the angles with a mitre saw, use a hand saw and a speed square. And don’t worry about the pocket screws-not necessary for this project.
@@robira1313 no I mean "a fair few" as I said.
I tried making your rack but ended up with a workbench
step 1: buy a thousand dollars worth of tools
Other than the notching of the 2x4’s you could do the whole thing with a $10 hand saw and a cheap drill/driver. You don’t need fancy tools to get the basics of this project done. It may look a little different but it will be just as functional. Use what you have.
