Hi- great video! Question if I may: With my power rack, what do you think of using the same method and materials to build DIY Pin & Pipe safety bars for my bench press? I would need a 36" pipe and I would secure on the front frame and the rear frame, on both sides. Thanks!

Updated Version of this video is here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kIWVZ3xtiNhkd5I . Your idea will work if your rack has 1" holes. That being said, you could just use 1/2" plumbing nipples instead of 3/4" and then you will not have to do any grinding. The 3/4" will be able to handle a greater load than 1/2" though. Either way - these are hollow pipes and will bend if a heavy load is dropped on them. Honestly, since we are dealing with safety here and the fact that those 36" nipples are not cheap...I would just buy pin pipe safeties. In fact, these ones from Bells of Steel MIGHT BE cheaper than DIY-ing: tinyurl.com/DBL-BOS-PPS

I’m tempted to try and DIY a leg roller to use for the lat pull-down on the ares with the 5/8 pr-4000

Looking forward to seeing the results. My 2 cents: 5/8” is going to be tougher to make DIY attachments. 5/8” bolts (for example) bend a lot easier than these plumbing nipples. This is one of the reasons I went with the PR5000 instead of the PR4000 - it’s easier to make DIY attachments for 1” holes.

Thank you from France, really simple and yet very fonctionnal idea They don't sell the right dimensions out there so I bought some 3/4"x1"x20" pipe online for my 3x3 rack, I cross my fingers that it will fit

Thanks for the simple build. Any idea if it will support around 180 lbs at 45 degrees for a 45 degree back extension?

Yes, absolutely!

Great video. Is there a way to make an adapted attachment with a 90 degree angle? I have a rack with front to back holes but I’d like to also use this as a lat pulldown pad.

I have something coming out shortly that will definitely solve your issue. But in the meantime…I will post something to instagram tomorrow to show you a way to deal with this issue using my Omega Arms brackets (that I showed you how yo make in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fIjQo6KKmLSZgq8 at the 14:14 mark). UPDATE: DETAILS posted here: instagram.com/p/CpbGxp8PXw9/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=

I have a similar setup. You can buy eyebolts and span a lashing strap between them. That works as a very stable Pulldown pat.

Nice! I made mine with unused weight pegs. But I've used plumbing foam, it's not that good indeed. I plan to add a layer or two of cosplay foam sheet that they sell on Amazon. Don't know yet if it will work... But well. I've used also gorilla 🦍 tape to put over the thing. My wife can do miracle with the vinyl, but it would had taken months to do so, too busy. So gorilla tape works for me. ;)

Huge fan of my leg roller! Wish I saw this before I dropped that cash on it
