Equipment List: $7.50 - 2" x 8" at 8ft length (will have needed length to add extra support) $7 - Box of 1.25" outdoor rated screws $15 - 2' x 2' sanded plywood $16 - 3M Safety Walk (optional) TOTAL COST - $29.50 or $45.50 with 3M Safety Tape Cuts: 2 x 8 cut at 19.25" then cut on diagonal (need two of these) 2' x 2' plywood cut one side at 20.5" Notes: Be sure to pre-drill your holes (forgot to film that) Don't knock over your camera and break the lens if you plan to film your building process ☠☠
Id put a board in between the 2x8 or across the back so they cant buckle over. It might feel sturdy, but if youre carrying weight and rocking, it might be enough pressure for the fasteners to give way
Thanks and that's a good call out. I went in-between the 2x8s to both increase strength in between the supports and also protect from shearing like you described. Thanks for watching! 💪🏃
Thanks Eddie! Even with the cross supports I added I personally wouldn't do any sort of heavy loaded lifts, but for light loads I think it's good. I'll be sure to post an update if it falls apart 😂

Best DIY slant board video I've found...by far. Looked at over a half dozen until I found yours. Thank you!!
Glad it worked for you! Enjoy 💪🏃

Good job, cool man 💪
Thanks for watching! I am using it a lot for exercise and stretching, a good addition to a home gym 💪🏃
You don't need cross supports. Just run a strip of plywood across the back tying everything together and that'll firm it up.
I don't have any engineering knowledge to know if this is sound, but looks good to me. Nice job!

@@DaveDoesFitness for sure. hope it holds up!
