This old power rack from my dad’s junk pile is super heavy in four pieces, but I was able to assemble the rack this evening after @theharvey and I shopped for 3/8” hardware at ACE.

The rack was not assembled in my dad’s junk pile, and the pieces were scattered. I almost passed on keeping the rack, but a heavy duty playhouse/weight rack popped into my mind.

It’s a miracle that I was able to move the rack from the front yard weeds and over a fence and to the back yard.

I removed the rust around the bolt holes and painted flat black a few days ago, and I’ve been spending a couple hours a day moving the pieces around, grinding away the rust/ paint and deciding on the final design.

My plan is to make the giant rack into a play house and a weight rack.

It will have a roof and at least two levels for the boys to climb and play on. The foundation will hold my free weights and some tools.

Best wishes and thank you for the support.
