    Blurry picture, but how clear does a box need to be?

    20x24x30. I kind of wish I made it longer/taller. I can do 30 inches pretty easily. 36 would have been better. But then not everyone who will use this box can do that.

    This article has the pdf I used.

    I put some "ledges" in the box for support.

    But in all seriousness Irving, good for you, even if it's homemade equipment. Being off of work for the last month, I've eatin like crap and eatin a lot. The upside is I've been pushing the weights really hard, and actually beat some personal bests.
