Where the fabricated boards mainly to protect the wall? Were they required if the hooks were going in to studs? I’m installing something similar, and curious if I need to go the extra mile vs just attaching them to studs
@@uneCENT The frame of the pull-up bar levers into the wall below the hooks, and if it is on gypsum board then over time it will compress it and make holes. I think the bar is technically designed for concrete walls. When installing it on a stud wall with gypsum, I think it is necessary to have some kind of mounting plate or board to keep from damaging the walls. Good luck on your installation. It is a lot of fun to have one at home.
I usually use the plastic coarse threaded self drilling anchors, but I pre-drill them even though it says it is not necessary. However, on this project I decided to use some other anchor that made all kinds of promises, but ended up breaking my heart. Fortunately, I was able to hit the studs on one side of each of the the boards. BTW, if you don't have a good stud finder it is worth the investment.
Nice idea of using wooden boards to fix hooks,now I'm going to try this idea, thank you very much. 🙏
Love it cause you put effort on small details.
I will say This equipment is better than bodybuilding machines.
The small details are some of my favorite parts.
I like the adjustable aspect of this.
It's nice to be able to put it up out of the way and also use it for multiple exercises.

@@nimblecrowThanks and well done!
What kind of dry wall anchor did you use?
