It would be really neat to have a murphy-bed style, adjustable bench. Something that folds up onto the wall and can be used as an art piece, or a display shelf, but folds down into a flat and inclined bench to use free weights. I'll be following this series closely :D
This is so cool! I think, as far as the profile, I would add concave shapes for resting the hands in. Maybe multiple along the profile for fingers, or a larger one on each side for the each hand. If the bar is going to get consistent use, your hands may wear down the bar to a point that the wood becomes too smooth to grip.
Cool ‘sketch’ idea. I’m thinking that a vertical post can be setup 1.5m-2m from the wall, and a top attachment can span between the wall cleat and the post, that way you can swing your knees more or do leg raises and such. Will take up more floor space, but better than having space taken up by a large footprint free-standing structure. That wall cleat will also be good for vertical storage to keep stuff off the floor
I thought the same but then I started realizing that my wood handles on axes and sledge hammers are preferable and if taken care of last a really long time so why not
Martin guitars were confident enough to use plywood for some of their acoustic guitar necks, and there’s a lot of tension on guitar strings. However, that force is only in one direction so time will tell if they hold up. My guess is the part that hooks on to the cleat might wear down eventually, but we’ll have to find out. It is still an interesting idea
I give you a kind reminder that those from the east that took down ancient Rome used wood and resin layers for their crossbows used from horses. Some found in pope shape are still 1000's of years later stronger than metal bows. You would not think it is so.
I like the curves, but I feel like this was maybe inspired by watching a lot of Star Trek. Reminds me of a Klingon bat'leth. Maybe that's just me... Always enjoy you playing with ideas to see where they go and then talking about how you might improve them. Thanks for sharing!
It's visually very interesting. If you put a hook on top it would look like a giant fancy coat hanger. Just get some THX straps. I use the Chinese knock-offs and they are great. You could use them to work the whole body, but with anything fitness related they are better as part of a whole-body approach.
Man you are god sent lol . Can u share an idea or 2 on how to get a place to hang at apartment with low ceiling . Was thinking about wall pull up bar . Not sure how I can set up one without having the room looking like a cell 😂
Really cool idea, looks awesome! Do you think your boys at semi exact could make a steel French cleat track system that you then clad over with wood for a warmer look?
Can you make a video on a office table for client meetings which is minimal, low cost and preferably all white like an executive table. It will be a great help.
Swedish ladder attachment would work. How much weight can that pull up bar take? Seems like a steel pipe would make the whole job a lot easier. Innovative design, not for me though. I don't think I'd need to be able to move equipment around and everything would end up being fixed in place without ever making use of the split cleats.
👍 Either integrated into the french cleat or as an attachment (especially if fitted above a doorway), a hangboard seems like an excellent addition and perfect for the X Carve (basically just pockets and holes). Maker Ranch 2.0 (or 3.0?) is gonna be sweet! 🔥
I see that your channel is very valuable. I would love to repost your whole channel, without changing anything, on the clean and valuable platform named Ganjing World. If you agree with that, please let me know. Thanks!
nice but would always be thinking it will break and injure me lol being tall means i weight about 280 pounds with almost no fat and only average muscles ;| if i bulk up i would get over 300 pounds.
Just from initial observation that is a poor design for chin ups because you're not adequately promoting supination. From an injury prevention and biomechanical activation standpoint.
@@HomeMadeModern double laminated plywood is indeed strong, my issue is the fasteners on the device, the cleat wall and the studs. isn't the face screwed and glued on to the perpendicular piece that hooks into the cleat? it will probably be strong but it makes me hesistate as i am paranoid as i had wall mounted stuff fail on me on heavy weight pullups. lol
