I really respect how you guys never ask for likes/subs.
Asking for subs is a normal thing. UA-camrs also human, they have to live, they have to make money. We learned so much from their videos so what would hurt you If you press the little subscribe button?
+KevinB Begging is only good for beggars.
Your comment got me to sub. I didn't even realize I hadn't and I have been benefiting from their content a lot.
@@buitrongkhoa yeah but it has the opposite effect. At the end of a 30 minute video, when they say they have similar stuff, I'm like yeah smash it. In the beginning? More likely to shut it off
Brandon, you and your brother Hudson are the best!!! Also love seeing your dad being a part of your channel, with his DIY projects. You Dudes make an awesome team!!!
Thanks so much GideonsSword777 . We have a lot of fun being able to all work together to not only come up with routines but make the equipment as well!
its crazy,here I am looking for ways to make my own home gym and I watched about 4 videos and couldnt help but notice how lucky you guys are to have a father that supports you and how great your relationship seems to be. You guys are trully blessed.
@@OfficialBruceLee childish behavior detected 😂
@@OfficialBruceLee I can appreciate a good joke but…the went to get milk joke is played out 😂 did you wake up angry at the world and decided to go after the person who was leaving a positive comment? Your life must be tragic 🥲
@@OfficialBruceLee no matter how long ago the comment was posted I still get notifications. I might’ve answered faster than 5 minutes since I was on the app. Good luck building your at home gym since you’re probably not old enough to get a gym membership or drive yourself to the gym. Hopefully this video helps you on your journey to fitness so that your able to impress that girl that probably don’t want you. Can’t troll a troll my guy 😂
@@OfficialBruceLee I know reading and comprehension isn’t your strongest suit. Someone take his iPad 😂
@@OfficialBruceLee 😂😂😂 dude thought he was gonna come in and roast me 😂
I searched homemade dip for chips and this popped up
Divine providence
This is for after the chips tbh
Take the hint
the universe was talking to you . )
Don’t be a dip
I am 57 years old and you have the most professional instructions I have found so far.
Most are young guys who are goofing off and having fun making their videos.
There's nothing wrong with that if you are in your 20s...but I just wanted straight forward instructions.
Thanks for adding the materials list! I will have a much easier time shopping now!!
Great job!!!
Still not asking for likes or subs, you guys deserve every like on the planet.
I so agree with you, every other channels is like begging for subs n likes it's damn annoying.. Buff Dudes you're the best!
No need to ask when they produce quality content :D !
I appreciate the detail in building and showing some exercises to do.
Great idea! I followed your plan on one recently. One recommendation I have (for those not going the tennis ball route) is use 90 degree elbows instead of caps for the ends of the supports. I noticed rocking because the Tees were lower than the Caps if that makes sense. Thanks!
Thanks for the recommendation.
I would definitely go for the elbows👍
Brandon can your dad make a ps4?

OH MY GOD DUDES I have been looking for a way to create my own dip bars at home, and now I got even more than what I was looking for. You guys are amazing!
These are by far my fav series on youtube. Keep them coming, i may not make them yet, but when it comes time too. i know where ill be looking cheers.
READ THIS before buying!
I made these today. They cost about $135 for the 3/4" pipe and $160 for the 1" pipe. I got everything at Home Depot, except the tennis balls, which I got at a tennis store ($10 for 8 regular balls). The pipe wrench was $16, but I'm going to return that once I'm done with it, so that's not included in the prices above. After feeling the 3/4" and the 1" pipe, I decided on the 1" pipe. If you have bigger hands, give the 1" pipe a shot and see how you like it.
I don't know if the price of pipe has gone up 200% in the last 4 years or if they got their pipe off the black market, but Home Depot is about as cheap as it gets, as far as I know. Just wanted to let everyone know what they cost as of 2020. :)
They work great and they will last forever if kept dry. I'm going to build another taller set for doing proper dips and rows. Enjoy, everyone!
UPDATE 1/12/20: I decided to return it all to home depot. I found height and width-adjustable parallel bars on Amazon for $73 with free shipping, which support up to 330 pounds and also have much wider bars with padded grips (it's called the GoBeast Dip Stand). I found that even with the 1" bars that I bought, it was often too painful to use for more than a few reps. Happy dipping! :D
Thank you man!
Sneaky dude using a pipe wrench and then returning it
Steel pipes are definitely expensive compared to other options unless their cost is really cheap where you live or if you get them used (many old buildings and houses throw them away when they are renovating the plumbing). A far less expensive option is to use 1 1/4" PVC pipe but you have to be sure its thickness (of the walls) is appropriate (here PVC pipe for sanitary purposes that will be buried in the ground is the thickest you can get). Just make sure that the upper portion, where your hands will be placed, isn't very long, for most of the dips exercises a 20" long upper section will be long enough to sit your hands comfortably.
Don’t buy the pre cut pipes. Just grab a 10’ length (~$18) and have them (Home Depot) cut and thread the pieces you need.
jalidkalid No project cuts at Home Depot
lol when he caught the tiny tennis ball I thought it was regular sized and his hands were just huge
Came here for some advice and now I'm in love :) Damn you Buff Dude!
love the wallpaper. I'm one of your long time subscribers, and since day one I knew you guys would make it from all this quality work you guys put together and put out for us. Keep it up dudes.
Buff dudes. You guys are in the top channels in UA-cam for great content. Very humble videos. I love all your bids. thank you guys a lot.
Cheers
Keep them coming they help a lot!!
Maybe you dudes can do a Ceiling/ Wall Mounted pull up bar. Or Plyo Boxes or Medicine Ball! D.I.Y. Duke Can Do Anything!!!
3/4" pipe seems a little skinny, might be more comfortable on the hands if it were 1" or 1-1/4"?
You can absolutley do that, or you can Fat Grips on them, or gut a pool noodle to put around
Just about to suggest pool noodle. Or bike tape too, to add grip and thinkness
I got it, parts list. Thanks for another DIY video Buff Duke.

Peter Richard where do you get this equipment from?
Hardware store like home dept or Lowe's
I'm in the UK do u know any places here
my bad lol of course there is a Lowe's in UK lol
How much it cost you? Seems expensive
hahaha I've been watching these guys forever and they're so helpful and laid back. I'm glad they don't talk about fitness BS like the other fitness channels. They're always positive.
Hey you guys
Please answer this :
- Can we build a set like these waxwork for pull ups muscle ups and round the bars for gymnastics ?
You guys are creative and so much better than these other youtubers that all they are doing is vlogs about their day and nothing to give to fitness.
Just built these in an hour. They turned out perfectly! Thank you so much'
I'm on it! I live in a small apartment. Can break down the bottom stabilizers and store them out of the way. Very cool! Cheap too.
The relationship the buff dudes have with their Dad is pretty special. Good job.
Saw the video yesterday and had to go to 2 Home Depots, but got all the materials and made them today. Very excited to use them tonight!
Could you please help me to finde out what 3/8 inch pipe in Europa is? Some sites are saying that it is 10mm, but in comparism to the video that seem too thin? And thank you for the great video
this was great! I built two sets, but the other one has a leak - do I need a plumber or are there any diy tricks to fix it?` please reply
Very nice. I built my pull-up bar same material. Very strong. Looking to make dip bars. PVC might not be strong enough. Thanks.
Happy new year dudes and duke. This is some great equipment, will definitely build this.
Thanks Jonas S Happy New Year to you as well! Let us know how it goes once you put it all together.
+Jonas S Happy New Year

can i build it with 90 cm height? because these pipes looks like heavier than regular dips stations. great video by the way.
I have been looking all over for how to do this by yourself. And I just want to say thank you so much these look amazing and I cannot wait to make them
Brandon and his dad have the same mannerisms when speaking. Love the way they explain everything. It's pretty cool. Duke, sure knows how to catch!
Love your theme track. Can I download it anywhere? Want to hear it for motivation before the gym or running
Hey there BUFF Dudely Dudes! Is it safe and effective to alter this build for use as a bench press safety catch? I imagine using T joints instead of L's at the top corners would be effective to keep the bar from rolling away.
Thanks for the help.
Awesome videos! I like the practicality of the equipment and yall do a great job on the videos. If your looking for a request to make something, I'd like to see what you can come up with with a back yard pull-up dip station.
As I watch him do dips, all I can think about is installing some recess lights to get some proper lighting in there.
Hey, I'm just throwing this out there. I made a pull up bar recently and used some good quality Handle bar tape for bicycles around my pipe. Secured it with electrical tape on both sides. It is a night and day difference. You should try it on those bars. I bet you won't want to get off of them.
Excellent video! I was always wondering how to make these, and now I know. Thanks to y’all.
How do you tighten the elbows facing each other, when they tighten in the same direction?
Your guys' dad is the man lol
Your video says all the pipes are 3/4 inch Dia. but, your above list has all pieces are 3/8 inch dia.
Tony Trotta
I’m lucky enough to work at a heating/plumbing company where we get gas pipe in bulk and I can take from the scrap bin or at price. I don’t know about other companies but mine allows me to take or do small things for close friends at cost so if you know a plumber you might be able to score some cheap pipe!
Keep throwing ideas I will keep filling my garage gym.
Thanks for shearing.
I love these guys! It's like the skit Hans and Franz from SNL had a lovechild with the Home Improvmememt TV show. Funny yet helpful. Hey, can yall do a video on DIY weighted vests. Most cost $150 or more. Help out a tool friendly home workout wacko.
Excellent well laid out video, thanks! Really like your arm band Buff Dude...got any details on it?? Thanks again and thumbs up!
You guys are awesome. One thing that I would like to see is a home made prowler. I have heard of them being made of steel or wood.
Thanks for the video. I had to buy 3/4 in pipe but personally I like the larger size.
I just made a set of these. One mistake I made is getting rubber caps instead of tennis balls. The rubber caps aren't wide enough. So I will have to go get some tennis balls. Unfortunately my usual hardware store didn't have all the bits of pipe. So I went to Home Despot (pun intended) including the rubber caps I spent $89. So depending on where you go it can cost a bit more than the price given in the video. Also, my pipes had a nasty coating on them. I took it off using a copper scrub pad and sponge. I will probably be making a video about these soon. I will drop a link on here once the video is up.
Thanks Buff Dudes and DIY Duke for this tutorial. My new parallette bars will help this fat grrrl become a BUFF grrrl. Not only that they save me money on the gym membership I am no longer getting. Thanks again! :)
You motivated me to create my own dip bars ( I uploaded the video). Thank you and keep up the fantastic work!
Having just found the Lebert Equalizer bar, I really like what you're doing. So I'm off to Home Depot to make my own.
Thank you this is so simple and economical.
the pianOracle will be taking a trip to the Home Depot in the morning BEFORE piano practice. You guys rock.
Would you recommend a wider base if I were to build this at a taller height?
Would it be better to use pipes like you did or use PVC pipes?
One of the best fitness channel out there :)! And also what a great buff family :)
Those could also double as saftey bars for those of us that don't have a four post squat rack ?? Better than nothing don't you think ? Thanks for the vid
Can you do: How to make a lat pull down (with 2 separate weights for each arm) - really need to make one of these!
LukesWorld182 just make a pull up bar bro pull ups are way superior to par pull downs .
Awesome job guys!!!! This is by far the best instruction video. Thanks!!!
sir....i must say that you both are just amazing...and your thinking to create equipments are also fabulous....sir...i request u to please upload a video that "how to make concrete weight plates.." .plz sir..its a request ...i m a poor guy who cannot afford to buy so if u plz upload video to make concrete weight plates...that would be a very big help...thanks a lot
Really going to show my naivety to DIY here, but what kind of pipe are these constructed from? Looks much sturdier than PVC.
you did a really great job with these
Would this work if i made this to be 3 feet or around 1 meter tall? Should i get bigger pipes 1" or 1"1/4 or add diagonal supports for stability? I really like this project but i would prefer something taller for easier dips.
These tutorials saved my life...thanks so much buff dudes
Nice work I'm doing the 12 plan week tnks for all your help
amazing! parallet bars on amazon are like 200$
You think a floor pull up (close grip, not so wide grip) is possible?
Buff Dad rulez!, and I love the comic characters ! :D
Is there a reason for the 3/4 inch pipes?
Do you reckon guys 1 inch is just as good?
Being some people just have benches and nothing else, try to make a rack for people who want to bench, and for people who may not want to power rack to bench so maybe a individual one you could just set up behind any bench so you can rack during bench press, thanks! Love the videos!!
I just made this today, got everything from the big orange hardware store. You can save a bit of money by getting galvanized pipe instead of the black pipe, at least where I was the galvanized is cheaper than black pipe. Funny enough the 90 and T joints were more expensive in galvanized, so I got black pipe instead. I might get the caps for the ends instead of using tennis balls. In hindsight I should have perhaps gotten 24" for the vertical pipe for slightly more height, it would probably allow for full ROM dips. Overall still pretty happy with it. Price is around $50 for everything where I am. Compact and light. Can't wait to really test these out.
Thanks for the incredible idea with the dip bars!
i dont know if this is gonna cost me less than if i buy an actual parallettes, or how the hell its called. But it looks cool, so i may give it a try. I dont know about the tennis balls though. are they steady as a base?
You guys are incredible. I built my own powerack per your instruction video and this is my next build.
Can you make it bigger and cement it into the ground for permanent outdoor use?
DIY DUKE! What would you say is the weight limit for this construct?
Why have I never done this before? Great idea!
DIY Duke is a god
Awesome guys! It's really fun to wach these vids with basics of excersises and plus some humour ) Dudes , you're the best!
If you do make them higher do you need to extend the length of the pieces on the bottom so that they don't tip over when doing exercises?
+Walter Donaldson Yup, else they'll become unstable.
Walter Donaldson use abs to balance yourself. I seen a female do push-ups while balancing on top of four 45 weight plates one under each hand and each foot with the plates standing up on the thin side
abs can only get you so far without the bars kicking out when you reach a certain height
Could these be used as spotter catchers ?
Could you safely make a ballet barre using this method?
Hello just want to clarify, is it 3/4 or 3/8 inch pipe?
Wow this is such an eye opener.. really thank you so much ...
it´s possible to build a pull up bar with this pipes or a rack?
I would have loved to see you use those paralettes... BUT totally appreciated your assistants demonstration 😜🤪😋
I saw this video , and build a bigger version , where I am able to do inverted rows , it works perfect , but how did u guys get the black coat off of the pipes , I had to sand mine down, or did I use the wrong pipes ?
Teflon helps keep it closed as well with pipes
Hello folks, can you suggest me where should I visit to get the raw materials such as pipes for the Parallettes ? I also want to build a Pull and Pushup bar in my backyard. Please advise.
Keep up the great work! You spread awesome information while being fun to watch! I love your videos and I'm always looking forward to new stuff!
Regards from Germany!
What kind of pipe is being used or is there just one type of pipe?
I am so making this on the weekend.. thank you so much for the video and the detailed info on the bottom of video
damn now this one amazing equipment no matter how much money it is gonna take i'm gonna build one for myself ,one can perform a lot of exercises on it ,thank you brandon right now i'm following your 12 week volume 2 routine as i ve finished my 12 week original routine got myself into pretty good shape.
you guys are fucking cool and filled with ideas.
I love doing dips! I do them in my kitchen where the counter makes a 90 degree turn but this looks way better. Where can I buy all these hardware to build these!?
Big box hardware stores ... like HomeDepot or Lowes. Or search on Amazon ... the hardware is slightly cheaper and you get free shipping if you are a Prime member. The downside is that the quantities won't be what you want. For example, on Amazon the pipe is sold in packs of four. Elbows and such in much larger quantities. However, if you are also interested in other projects, the excess won't be a problem.
You might be able to build it cheaper using wooden dowel ... maybe 1.5 inches or so. It would take more work to make the joints, however.
The real rub is the cost. I just did a quick search and came up with a Golds Gym "Power Tower" for $90 with free shipping. That will be cheaper than building these and you can do more with it. That said, I do appreciate the instructional video.
So much good info and now diy videos, you guys are amazing.
WARNING! just subbed!! so i just joined the 250k bodybuilding.com challenge and was looking for ideas on how to make my own equipment and stumbled across this playlist. FREAKING AWESOME i will mos def be making this stuff! we need some more ideas, this is the last video yall posted on this series, i think, any new additions to the buff-quipment?
Would it be safer to make them taller?
+Victor Rivera Not safer, but more room haha
Wonderful, but are these metal pipes ??
Going to make mine high enough and long enough to do Australian pull ups on, keep up the good videos mate
awesome! this is on my to do list!
