Olympic Flat Bench

with weight set

NOTE: The measurements within this text and 2D documentation are given both in
millimeters and inches (in brackets). This website is based on ISO measurement unit system, which
is the international standard. I apologize to the people who use other measurement units; but I
believe that measurements given in millimeters and inches should be adequate for everyone who
would like to build this project.
Besides that, on todays Internet it is easy to purchase the ruler containing all the
measurement units and overcome the difficulties of any kind.
Use various tools and clamps in process of welding, so you could weld the items together with
accuracy.
