Check out what my brother and I built this weekend
Many of you guys will have something to say about how it is weak of not strong however it is definitely solid enough for us. we have had about 500 pounds on it which is more than we can rep for now. this leg press is more difficult than other machines that I have used. I can only rep a plate and a quarter on each side for 6 and I can usually get six reps with three plates on other machines.

I have other pictures if anyone is interested. I will try to post a picture of it loaded with weight soon.
