Very awesome! Well done.
Must be great to be handy on the tools!
 
Thought I'd post these in here too.
New rubber flooring in my gym, I picked these up off eBay for $250. 14 squares plus off cuts.

 
How much of a problem do you find the narrow room ? ... i keep considering a rack for home, but a 3m wide room and the risk of putting the bar through a wall or window is what stops me....

I originally had the rack the other way and found it wasted too much space. The narrow room really isn't a problem
I still have about half a foot either side of the barbell so loading isn't a problem.
The only problem I really face is I can film squats from the side
 
This is your home gym?????

Jezus Naughty, niiiiiiiiice Even a tv on the wall! Mwahaha

I'm coming to train there!

Thanks Bella, It's set up at a friends office/warehouse
I'm trying to get him to ditch some of his cardio stuff as there's no room for my squat rack and T-Bar Row, I might just have to do it when he's not looking

It looks really good, more business should do this.

You should see us together Goosey, it's like Laurel and Hardy
I'm 5'10" & 82kg and lift weights only, while he's about the same height but weighs around 120kg, mostly does cardio, uses weights only occasionally but is still built like a Sherman tank, that's genetics at work right there.
 
So jealous. I wish I stayed in one place long enough to have a useful home gym.

At the moment, back 'home,' I've got a double garage I'm planning on using once I've built a carport in front of the garage. Also means I can fling the doors open and expand my space, even if it's raining.

Only ~3 years until it actually happens.
 
My home gym... its really just conditioning and cardio as i don't have a rack and barbell... once i buy myself a real house, they'll be on the list

My gym under the carport.

Just picked up the benchpress with an olympic bar and 100kgs of rubber coated weights for $250 last week. Loving it

Thought id post up my home gym, its a bit hard to get decent photos though in such a small room. Wish I had my own house with an extension built on for a massive home gym. Some day but not anytime soon unfortunately......

I have Body Craft power rack which has been awesome with the cable cross over and dip attachment, Bodysolid ab bench, muscle motion weight plate holder ABC bb (awesome bit of gear worth every cent) a ghetto sound system does the job though haha and as you can see some motivating wall art ive been playing around with
