IronOnline From Dave Draper's excellent site : several terrific ideas, incuding an axle-mounted wrist wroller, a poor man's Reverse Hyper bench and a home-made weight vest.
CelticKane
Want a pull-up bar but don't want to drill any holes? CelticKane has a great solution.
From the forums
The RossTraining Forum is always filled with great ideas, including : a home-made sled that rivals commercial offerings (Jason Kirby has a brilliantly simple alternative) and Make Your Own Gear. Superb.
The Crossfit Forums are similarly active, with great ideas such as this : attaching a climbing rope.
XXX Powerlifting
Can't afford your own monolift? The guys at XXX Powerlifting have the next best thing.
Anvil or Hammer
Anvil or Hammer recently held a kettlebell painting contest, in conjunction with the Art of Strength. Even if you missed the contest, Mike has some great tips on kettlebell painting. One of the best ways to customise your home gym.
A couple of new links on the Fightraining blog, as well as a few recent discoveries, have prompted me to create a second list of DIY gym equipment (original list). Building it is half the fun.

If you're anything like me you tend to spend a lot of time in Gmail; or at least have it open in order to keep an eye on things. One of the Gmail features that I've come to really enjoy over the past couple of years is Web Clipping.
Web Clips are simply headlines from your favourite XML feeds, displayed just above your inbox (or whichever folder you're currently in). The list of feeds is entirely customisable; this is how to add the feed for Straight to the Bar :
- Log in to Gmail, and click on 'Settings' in the upper right of the screen.
- Click on the 'Web Clips' tab.
- Paste the following URL into the search box :
http://feeds.feedburner.com/StraightToTheBar
and click 'Search'.
- Click 'Add'.
That's it. The headlines from the feed will now appear just above your Inbox (or you current folder). Each time you read a new email or refresh the folder, you'll see a different headline. Simple.
