I love working out at home, so cleaned out my basement and got some new stuff. Since I workout out alone, safety was a concern so I went with what I feel is the best of both worlds. Machines that use free weights. The machines I do have are by Powertec. Love them. Nothing replaces barbell exercises but this is as close as you can get IMO.

Anyway, I'm happy with what I've come to call "The Cage".

I like the powertec stuff too - I have their freeweight bench and a few miscellaneous things, quality stuff for the most part.

I like your organization - I need to organize my homegym a little better.

Man, I couldn't even tell you because that's one of the left over pieces I didn't trash when re-doing my basement gym. It's a Body Solid so I figured I should keep it. It's several years old so it wasn't that much back then. They've gotten a bit expensive now.

But one of my favorite places to check is ebay. ArmYourBody.com and others are now selling on ebay and it's cheaper than their website.

Thanks. I should have gotten the powertec complete leverage system if I planned it out better. That's that yellow beast that has all of the leverage stations together in one unit. Beautiful piece. But I started piece meal and now I don't want to and can't spend that kind of money.

But yeah, there's other powertec machines and racks I'd like to have.
