Squat rack... and a story.


It's been over a year since my last post. I cannot believe that it has been this long since I last updated my blog. It is not true that I have not worked on projects. I have had some. The first big project I tackled in this last year was a major revision to my squat rack. That is, I built a complete squat rack on 11ga 2"x2" metal, as you can see from the picture.

This, somewhat explains why my blogging efforts got completely derailed. I took many pictures of the process and wrote an e-book on how to build your own home gym. I wanted to sell it online and become a millionaire (LOL). I spent many hours writing the book and for that reason I stopped blogging.

However, at the same time I started developing an interest for fishing, that soon became an addiction. I am still hooked and loving it. For this reason and my previous experience building little boats, I decided to build a plywood motorboat to go fishing. I went online and found plans, for free. Then, it came to me. I was using the work of somebody else who had decided to make his work available to others for free. I realized that I was being selfish with my design for the squat rack. So, I decided to make my e-book available for free. After forgetting about it, today I am compiling the PDF file and will post it below.

I still owe you posts about my boat and a little fishing cart I built.

e-Book

Happy building!
