DIY Folding Exercise Bench for Home Gym
In this project, I made a Foldable DIY Exercise Bench to go in our new home gym. All in all, the material cost was about $60 and it has that nice folding feature that most other don't have.
I designed this weight bench based on a couple designs I saw on Youtube. I did a fair amount of research and found good designs from I Like to Make Stuff, DIY Creators, Steve Ramsey, and Buff Dudes. I took elements from each of those designs into consideration as I made my workout bench, but the major inspiration for it came from Bob of I Like to Make Stuff. I designed my bench in Fusion 360 and the plans are available below.
