Made a leg press

[mechguy]

Hey guys, just thought i would share....
A mate and i were bored on sunday, so we cut up the old gym equipment we don't use any more and welded up a leg press machine.

Seems to work pretty well, and no one's lost any fingers/toes yet. What do you think, would you use it?

Thanks mate, it's enough to fry quads, and only cost me $100 in castors, so i'm pretty happy with it.

I remember my welding skills in high school; broken back would be imminent.

Yeah man, i bought my power rack cheap, but if i didn't buy one i would have made it. Cutting and welding is all fine but drilling all those holes.....
That would suck.

Yeah lol... although if it was from square stock you could clamp two pieces at a time together and use a drill press to keep the hole straight.
But I'd rather find one on craigslist for 100 bucks haha
