DIY Weight Plate PVC Spacers

1/26/2021

Parts List/Info: $0.00 I had extra 2" PVC

I made these before the Landmine Attachment and didn't realize it at the time but these are needed so you can use my Landmine Attachment as Vertical Barbell Storage. I made them for the 45's and the 25's, four in total. 2 1/2" is the perfect length to have just enough room for the Vertical Barbell Storage

1) Cut four 2" PVC pipe 2 1/2" Long and Paint

Why do I need these spacers?

1) When using weight horns, the weight plates will rub against the rack.

2) As I stated above, I made my own landmine attachment and I use that to also vertically store my barbell and in order to properly have the barbell vertical, you need that extra space to swing the landmine to the left and attach it to my accessory pegs.

3) I'm probably one of the few home gym owners that rely on my rack to store a lot of my extra gear and so having the spacers helps me hang stuff on my rack without the weight plates getting in the way. (written: 5/17/22)
