I was just posting elsewhere here and got thinking about the first training equipment I ever had. I was a poor student with no money and an awesome set of muppet arms (note that I am no longer a student)....
My first "dumbbells" were couple of bricks joined together with duct tape and a length of 90 by 35 pine with some bricks duct taped to the end for a "barbell". I also made a chip-up bar from a hand rail for the disabled that I picked up from a demo site and screwed into the ceiling.
I thought it might be interesting to see if anyone else started out in a similar way or had used or made some interesting or innovative "made it myself" home training equipment....
