Thank you! I'm working on it!

@@chjeltness great suggestion! I’ve been in touch with someone at GGR, they’re definitely aware of my content. I’m hoping they’ll want to collaborate sometime.

@@KaizenDIYGym ok

Yes! You must have a 3x3, don't worry about any of that u-bolt stuff I mentioned for the 2x3 racks.

Lmao

Hey, thanks so much! They’re still holding up great too

Thanks man, I appreciate the kind words. This stuff is so much fun. As long as people want to watch, I’ll keep making videos.

That is awesome! I’m glad you find value in my videos!

You’re very welcome. Thanks for watching! I’ve got plenty of builds planned for the next year! I’d love to see what you make. Tag me on Instagram, or check out our Facebook group or Reddit group to post yours!

Hey I'm glad you like it. The links take a lot of time to put together, I'm happy to know they're useful.

So cool! I’m happy to hear the instructions were easy to follow. If you’re on Instagram and would want to send a picture of your jammers arms when they’re done, I’ll post on my page. I love seeing this stuff.

SO did it turn out ? I found a 4 pack of 6 x6 at 38.5 " in storage , My wife saw me laughing and said whick project. ? I said after your HIP pad .

@@BRUTUSPLAC It turned out great! Just used it in my workout today for military press. At this point, I’m trying to make each of his projects come to life at my gym!

@@Probusinessbasics tues/ weds /thurs/ fri making as much as i can depending on what i find for supplies in storage, Good Luck !

Thanks man! I really appreciate it. These videos are a lot of work and it makes me glad to know people enjoy them.

@@KaizenDIYGym no problem! I have some homemade gym equipment already and have been trying to come up with ideas for some of the exact pieces you've built. Problem solved! I'll be adding your ideas to my gym asap.

I appreciate the support, thanks for coming back!

Thanks man! I’ve got a few projects in the works fright now. I’m not sure which one will be done first but I should have something posted within the next week.

Thank you so much!

Thank you so much! They’re super fun to have in the gym

Thank you! It means a lot coming from the king of shredded dads!

@@KaizenDIYGym haha, can’t wait to see the next build.

That's awesome!

Thank you for always watching and supporting!

Thanks man! I love making these videos and I get so stoked to hear how much people appreciate the content. I’ll keep making these tutorials as long as there is an audience.

@@KaizenDIYGym awesome man! I make a lot of my own equipment because I work at a steel service center. Giving me some great ideas!

@@christiansather974 that’s so cool. I definitely have welding on my learning to-do list

Thank you! I'm just doing my part to help this community grow!

Thank you too!

It has taken years to collect all the tools I have. Slow and steady

Awesome, thanks so much!

Thanks bro! As long as people are watching, I’ll keep making these videos!

Dude, I know the feeling! I actually have an off camera space in my basement that’s just a pile of these projects when I’m not using them. It’s getting pretty big.

Hey, that’s awesome to hear, thank you!

@@KaizenDIYGym I've been looking for a long time for a decent DIY jammer arms and I always found ones made out of steel which doesn't work for most people. So I am extremely excited about your design which I will be building this weekend. I will make sure to tag you on Instagram. Keep up the great work!

Thank you!

Awesome, thank you so much!

Thanks so much!

it'll be fun no matter how it turns out and you'll have tools for more disastrous projects!

Heck yeah!

Aww thanks! Hopefully they’ll be calling to collaborate

I’d love to see how yours turns out!

Wow, that is amazing, I’d love to see it

Thank you so much Warmachine!

Hell yeah!

The more purposes the better!

That would definitely be a challenge! I'll add it to my list

That’s true! I agree it would be a great feature

I’m glad you enjoy the content. The lateral raise feels great. It is different from the dedicated machine, the movement is angled rather than being up and down, but I like to do them both on shoulder day.

I’ll have to look that up

awesome, thanks!

Hi, thanks for watching! Yes, it will also work in a half rack. Check out this post to see how it looks instagram.com/s/aGlnaGxpZ2h0OjE3OTIwMzYxOTIzNjU1MzQ5?story_media_id=2675623233054649348&

@@KaizenDIYGym Excellent, Now I have one important mission 😂. Thanks buddy.

It’s definitely possible, you’d need to make a few adjustments. I’d definitely bolt the rack down.

I’d love to know how that works! Keep me posted

@@KaizenDIYGym you bet!

I have heard that request before, I’ll add it to the tally. I’ll definitely do it but it may be a couple months. My list is crazy long!

Ok cool. Congrats

That’s a great question. I have not tested the weight capacity of the casters but that’s a great video idea!

Thanks for the sub! I don’t know how well casters hold up to the stress of being used upside down.

No issues at all! I’ve been using them regularly and never put more than 45 pounds on them. I posted a short recently showing how to increase the resistance, that’s been great. I’ve also been using them with bands.

There should be a way to make these lock into a fixed plane. I’ve been considering it for a while but haven’t had the time to test anything out. The movement is not quite like free weights but definitely more so than using a machine. I’d say it’s a hybrid.

@@KaizenDIYGym when you figure out the fixed path mod, inquiring minds would love to know!! I wonder if you found a way to mount them vertically it might be easier to find a mod to fix the caster in place to only spin forward and back - would make it a bit more similar to Phenox Fitness model

My next big build is a power rack. A smith would be pretty difficult but I could probably figure it out.

There’s a guy on KZfaq with a Etsy page that will fabricate one for you. Richmond custom I think. Steel guide rods, brackets, linear bearings, housing with angle iron, pillow blocks and hooks is all one needs.

They could be affixed to a wall, maybe with the 2x6’s attached to wall studs. I’d have to mess around with the idea for a bit to figure it out.

@@KaizenDIYGym that is an awesome idea, the usual viking-press is usually table or platform mounted but your idea of a 2x6 wall-mount is much better!

You have some options. You could drill holes into the sides. This can be done with a corded or cordless drill and drill bit. If you don’t want to do that, you can use non-swivel casters but that will restrict movement to a single plane of motion. Swivel casters mounted to the front will work for everything but overhead movements.

Pretty easy with pillow blocks at least 5/8 steel rod thru the blocks and the wood. Still use a 2x6 against frame but probably need to push pillow blocks out a few inches for clearance of the 4x4. So use the 2x6 to cut off 2 blocks 2” for the pillow bocks to rest on. Use 3 or 3.5 in construction screws to attach blocks to main 2x6 (3 each side with pilot holes, but watch where you have to bore holes for the pillow bocks. The 5/8 steel bar and pillow blocks can be found on amazon. I’d use an angle grinder to cut bar to proper length. Those are cheap enough. Or Titan has the brackets for ~$100 and you can bore some 5/8 hoes in your rack with a drill and metal step bit.

Find me on instagram and I’ll show you the modification I’ve seen.

@@KaizenDIYGym will do

That’s interesting. I’m sure there is a way to DIY it. I’ll add it to my list.

I posted this video a couple years ago. I don’t remember but I’m pretty sure I added links to all of the materials in the description of the video.

Great question. I’m not sure what your set up looks like so it’s hard to give you that advice.

I don’t know if it would be better but it is an option.

@@KaizenDIYGym The pipe would be captured and the weight supported through the would rather than just relying on the screws not to tear out so it would definitely be better. I guess my question was rhetorical.

Don’t think floor flanges work with threading it backwards. 3/4 floor flange for ~1 in grip uses 3/8 holes. Some 3/8 hex bolts at 4” will be stronger than screws.

I bought it. It’s an Ethos power rack from Dick’s Sporting Goods. Before this one I had a Body Solid rack that was 3x3 with 1” holes. I know that REP’s PR5000 line is all 3x3 with 1” as well. Maybe not as common as Westside spacing but it’s out there.

I am sorry, I wish I could help. There's got to be an alternative

3/4 iron pipe has an OD of 1.06” If you metric then there are pipe charts online. Or a metal yard for solid steel rods then bore through the 4x4 and lock in the rod with metal collars with set screws that can be found on amazon.

@@KaizenDIYGym thank you be bless

I'd suggest getting a hold of Ben at GymPin. If anyone can do it, he can. hello@gym-pin.co.uk

I thought about that. I’m working on building a power rack and I want these to match.

Hi there, right now I am not selling any of this stuff. I’m staying super busy making these tutorials.

Safety spotters or a person as a spotter

I did. I filed a provisional patent application before posting this video. After releasing this video I contacted a company to see if they’d be interested in making them. I can’t divulge details any further. Good looking out bro!

@@KaizenDIYGym Bro, I'm really excited for you! That's awesome!
