I used to really enjoy the gym when I had it to myself, but hated it when it was busy in the evenings as I hate having to wait to use a particular set of weights or bit of kit. I gave it up, and concentrated on running and cycling. Bought myself a load of free weightsand a bench off ebay then went to the scrapyard and got this...

I have fitted a cross brace, longer bar, a pulley for pulldowns and locking hooks attatched to the bar that locate into the slots on the frame. All-in it cost me under 50 quid and its a lot sturdier than most smith machines on the market.
