Here is my latest addition to my self made equipment. One heavy duty Flat/Incline bench and one Flat/Incline/Decline bench
Just at the frame stage at the moment. Pads to come
75x75x3mm thick main Frame
10mm thick radial arms
16mm hardware.
Heavy duty Pop Pins....bullet proof!
FID bench

FID and Flat/Incline bench side by side

16mm bolts to hold things together

Bits of metal shaped and bent to be glued together


Cheers!
 
What's the calcs for figuring out the curve of the line of holes on the adjustment, or did you just bolt it up and mark it as required?

I had this part designed by an engineer/auto cad guy as I required a perfect fit so there is no slop or movement. So once he has done his drawing it is converted to a DXF File. You email this to the Laser cutter and they punch it into there machine....and hey presto... One sweet looking radial arm.


 
Been a bit slack on getting these finished...anyhow off to the powder coaters next week and will add some padding.
But had to do some testing to make sure they are up for some punishment! It all got approved by quality control.
Don't try this on your own benches!
Cheers
