Make
Your Own Squat Rack
Step 3 - Bend the brackets
While the concrete cures, you just need to
bend one side of an L-bracket up a bit to keep the bar from rolling
off. The easiest way to do this is to use a hammer to pound the tip
of one end of the bracket wile most of it is resting on a 4x4, or a
rock. As you can see in the photo, we will attach them to the 4x4's with the bolts, washer, lock washers and nuts.
Steps
- Dig the post holes
- Mix the concrete and level the 4x4's
- Bend the brackets
- Attach the first bracket
- Determine level and attach the second bracket
- Cut grooves / channel for chin-up bar on top of each 4x4.
- Bolt down chin-up bar
- Support braces and weight holders (optional)
