In this video I tackle building a rack to store some free weights on using only materials I had on hand at the time. This was a quick and easy build, especially for a beginner.

The materials I used for this project were:

2 - 2x4x8

1 - 16” wide x 6ft long board that I purchased from Home Depot

1” wide x 6ft board I ripped from some scrap material

2 1/2” pocket hole screws

1 1/4” screws

Wood Glue

The side pieces for my frame were cut at a 25 degree angle on one end and cut to about 39” long. The pieces for my base that the side pieces sit were cut to 20” long. The total width for this weight rack is 26 1/4” and the total height is just above 3ft.
