Great thread

Depends on your style, ghetto or fancy, I am getting a bit lazy and would just buy one these days

Here is mine, but it's not olympic, I have two of these bought on eBay for not a lot, $45 I think.

Here is my one:



I welded the tubes to it to hold the bars, It's the best photo I could find.

thanks Mick. I forgot about bar storage...
semi-ghetto is most likely.
want to tuck them in against the rack but not get in the way of other shit, so I can play cars.
have a tree already, but don't have space to pull plates off both sides...


this is different... but I don't have wall space



this would be a good idea, but don7t have the space..



compact(ish) wall option



maybe just a short version of this at front either side of rack... and chuck dumbells and shit underneath



another home made option

i really like the wall options but im always changing my garage around to make room for stuff so i need something a bit more mobile.

Does your rack have holes in it? I stuck pipe through some holes and hang weights there.
