I've also posted a new 2 part video with more detail on how to make the rack
Really awesome job. Love your innovations too. 💪
Thanks
That was my first thought when I started seeing DIY wood racks. Why not set them up to take rouge accessories. Brilliant!! Gorgeous work
You are no longer an amateur DIY'er You are now a pro!
The aestheticw are way better than any manufactured rack, and just walking up slapping it and hearing rock solid thump is the sort of thing that would just give me a good feeling.
One of the better DIY power rack builds! Bravo, Great work!
It’s very nice. I’m going to make one myself, yours is among the nicest I’ve seen.
Best ones I've seen yet. Your jcup insertion solution came to my attention 2 days late. It's a brilliant solution.
That idea you came up with to route a notch for the J-cups is brilliant. I never would have thought of that. I'm in the process of sourcing the materials for a folding rack that's about 40" deep. A cage type takes up too much space in my garage and would prevent me from doing other things. I need to make something that collapses into the wall so I can deadlift, do seated rows and jump rope. I don't have a router but I may be able to carve a notch using a dremel tool. It won't be as pretty but should still work.
Thanks - that's very kind of you to say so. The router worked OK but it was not without its difficulties. It required a very long router bit to get a sufficiently deep cut which generated a lot of heat. If I did it again I would use a forstner drill bit and drill out the groove using the bench drill, cleaning it up with a chisel. I've since added a cable system. Good luck with your build - a squat rack (folding or not) takes up a lot less space and you can do 70% of the same stuff on it - just need to find a location for cables and chin ups etc elsewhere against the wall.
@@grahammethold I had to abandon the folding concept and go one based on the Rogue Half-Rack dimensions. The wall separated mine and a neighbor who works out of her garage. I think the constant thud and vibration of racking the bar would have been too disruptive for her to concentrate. The new design is very sturdy but it also means I won't have ths space to put my car in the garage. But considering it's never seen the inside if the garage since I've lived here, that's fine. The wood you used looks so nice. I couldn't see any cracks or splits. Either your source has some really good lumber or you really sorted through looking for the best pieces. Home Depot here just sells Douglas Fir and I was not impressed. So much of it is chipped and dented. Even after sifting for good pieces. Sometimes I can hear the wood making noises as rack just sits there. I didn't sand or varnish it though. I have Rogue type J-cups coming next week and I'm using your approach. With no router, I'll be using the long drill/chisel method.
What a great build. I'm going to build one like it, but slimmer profile, and only will have weights on one set of 4x4s
good luck - hope it goes well.
well done, love the piece holding it to the ceiling
Good improvement of the original build!
Excellent! Awesome Craftsmanship!
Thanks
Very cool solution for the J-Cups with the routed bit.
nice solid neat job , i sold my metal rack and made a wooden one from CLS studding timber which seems to be ok
I like the changes that you made.
That's a piece of art! Very nice.
I wanna see you add a cable system . Know it’s gonna look good
J cup slots are outstanding.
Cleanest diy one I seen so far
Best diy yet, bravo!
thanks
thanks for sharing, i will change some things but it's definetly the best on the Tube!
Awesome setup! Thanks 🙏
Bench press squats, incline press squats and a floor press, with that routine you’ll get way too jacked. I’d personally tone it down a bit and focus on cycling in Lycra.
good spot - i got my terminology a bit mixed there!
very nice
This is actually really well made. Im gonna build one like that and have learned quite a bit of stuff thats really helpfull! 👍
That’s a really nice build! Going to copy what you did with the j hooks , that’s genius
Thanks very much. As someone else mentioned, you may get a more accurate measurement if take the measurement for the cut-out sections of the J-hooks from the FRONT of the post, not the rear. Either way, I highly recommend you do a test cut on a scrap piece of wood first to make sure you don't make any mistakes on the final wood. Good luck! Hope it goes well - why not stick a short tour online when you've done it - I would be interested to see what you create!
Nice!!!
this is fantastic!
Jeez dude. That is super nice. I woud totally buy one.
So cool! Thanks for sharing
1 Dimension is wrong in the design pdf! The "ANGLE SUPPORTS" are supposed to be 27cm instead of 17cm on one side! (at least i think thats the case, correct me if im wrong)
Ah yes, good spot! Thanks for pointing that out and apologies for the error - 27cm it is
Great job!
Awesome Porsche wall mate
ah thanks - took me ages!! If only i could afford the real thing - 1969 Irish green - then again, my Porsche takes up less space and doesn’t cost me anything to maintain!
@@grahammethold haha that’s the right attitude mate. I’m lucky in a way, inherited my great uncles jade green Vauxhall Chevette saloon, cheap to run, fortune chose it for me, I’d probably pick something silly, like an SZ series Rolls.
@@eldontyrell4361 happy new year
Great work. 👍👍👍👍👍
Nice work.
I've thought about doing something similar but ripping the 4×4 down to 3x3 (at least on the uprights and cross members would need at least one side to be 3 inches) so it can fit standard attachments. I don't know if taking away the 1/2 inch would significantly affect strength. What do you think? This is definitely the most solid wood rack I've seen.
3x3 would probably be OK (even 4x4 is in reality 3.5x3.5 anyway). The key to making it solid was the fixtures to the floor, ceiling and wall - I don't think reducing the size of the wood will make that much of a difference. Good luck!
Where did you buy the wall mounted weight plate storage things you have on the wall at 1.00 minute and how much were they please? Thank you. Nice wooden cage. I've just bought a steel one and just never considered a wooden one. What would you say the max weight that can be used is?
What did you use for the safety bars? Just started working on this.
Bull Dog Gear pin pipe safeties- details in the description
thanks for posting
pleasure
How much would you charge to build one to be shipped I have two teenagers,and I love it when a person of our caliber builds a piece of equipment (J.Cole
I've never really costed it out - but it would be too much to make one-offs commercially. It was more a labour of love! Thanks for the interest.
Fantastic rack you have built!
Thanks - it now has a pulley system for rows too!
@@grahammethold Great! Exactly what wood have you used? I'm trying to decide what I should go for? Maybe a treated wood as I'm planning on building mine in a garage that has no heating and is cold/slightly damp
@@Twentymacc It was just the untreated 4 x 4 pine from Jewsons. As with most modern softwoods it wasn’t straight so I had to bend it to my will! I wouldn’t have thought you would need to use treated wood provided you paint or varnish jt
That was the most organised power rack.
The routing for the j cups was an absolute work of art.
In fact, the power rack looks spot on.
My only critique and this is so minor - you didn’t include any means of dip bars. Beyond that - stellar.
True - no dip bars. Also, no ability to load the barbell at the front of the rack to use for inverted rows.
@@grahammethold it’s still a very respectable job. A job very well done in fact. Please do t take my comments as disrespect, merely questions. Love the vid!
Very impressive build love it! However a spade bit in the right hands is not crude , just the person wielding it...
good point - on reflection a good quality spade bit would have worked well
how big are the holes for the j cups to fit? The j cup part is super smart! and in general how is the power rack holding up? is it giving you any trouble or does it work just fine? Really cool design, best one I've seen, Cheers!
thanks - yes all holding up fine. I’ve since added a pulley for rows which works although not as good as a gym pulley. the j cup holes are 18mm diameter
Brilliant build and brilliant video! I've been looking for an English build of this. The safety bars you installed, what have you used? As I looking at steel tubes / pipes, but can see you've used something different!?
thanks very much. the safety pins, sleeves and floor anchors were all from Bulldog Gear. the safety pins work ok although the paint chips very easily.
Great build, where did you get the safety spotter bars from?
Thanks. I bought the safety pins and collars from Bulldog Gear - full details (incl links for equipment used) can be found in the description.
Just purchased the rogue attachments, intend to replicate your design. Any possibility you could share you drilled hole locations referenced from the base? Would be great starting point for me to work off of if it's not too much trouble. Lovely craftsmanship and finish work. You've inspired me to attempt my own!
Thanks - will do. I will measure up and put the details on the site shortly.
@@grahammethold many thanks!
@@LeBlancKnives I've just uploaded another video with full dimensions and plans linked in the description. Happy Christmas - let me know how your build goes!
@@grahammethold This is incredible! So much more than I could have asked for! Thank you Meth!! My wood is cut, sanded and finished. Just waiting on the J-Cups and safety bar to come in the mail now to drill the final holes. Sadly we don't sell 4"x4" lumber here in Saskatchewan, Canada (aside from western cedar and white oak which I didn't want to use for cost and ease of use) so I had to settle with laminated spruce 2"x4"s. What a load of work! One note, your dimension for the routed holes should be referenced from the front face and not the back (10-8 mm from back). By referencing from the front, where the J-cup face touches, any dimensional wood can be used. In my case I ended up with 3 3/8" lumber once it was milled to final dimension. Otherwise, great work and thank you so much for putting the time to share this with everyone online. Hands down the best design I've come across. Can't wait to get mine finished. Look forward to your next video!
@@LeBlancKnives be grateful for lockdown in the uk! Christmas has been trashed by Covid so i thought i would share some happiness with a power rack design video instead!
Where did you get the jhooks that fit a 3.5x3.5?
The j hooks are from Rogue, but you will see in the video that they don't wrap around the back of the posts - I had to route slots in the wood to take the j hooks
Great build! Where did you source the timber and j-hooks?
Thanks. I got the timber from Jewsons but you can get this size wood from most timber merchants as it is a very standard size. Main problem is warping - modern softwood is awful!! The J-cups and pull up bar are both from Rogue - from their Monster-Lite series - highly recommended. The J-cups don’t have that annoying lip that some j-cups have which makes it much easier to re-rack after squatting.
Black iron pipe can hold upwards of 500 lbs. The J Cups were really not necessary.
Compared to the J Hooks, the black iron pipe looks like Schit!
Very helpful video, making my own to go in shed. I've got 20mm solid stainless steel rods for safety bars, do you think they will be strong enough?
difficult to say. depends in how much you lift and how close to your max you go. truth is, i don’t use the safety bars aa they get in the way and i always lift a very comfortable weight
Thanks for reply, hope you do some more diy equipment in the future
impressive. thor who lift heaviest hammer (dumber ) is strongest. make wooden plates for bar and wood burn design in plates. 3 Woden dowel for handles so use plates as dumbbell. like doing man. squat , dead lift , bench. dumbbells.
you dipe bars on front if want. might use saft pipes as dip bare if arms reach each pipe. lift body up. slow down over time should hold body off floor.
Did you make the plate storage racks?
No, I bought them. Body Power.
@@grahammethold Thank you. The power rack you built is beautiful by the way.
Honestly one of the best ones I've seen. Well done! Have you made instructions for this buildm
That's kind of you to say so. Thanks very much. I haven't made instructions but I think I will include some details of the equipment I used in the description. I have also recently made a few improvements to it including for seated rows so I feel an updated video coming up . . .
Hi Nathan - I've just posted another video with a link to the full plans and dimensions - have fun!
