Thats exactly what I thought, I am never going to get close to 300kg so that should be fine. My only gripe about this bar is the knurling is quite smooth, oh and make sure you tighten the hex bolts at either end as both of mine were loose. A 1/5 inch drive ratchet wrench will fit.
Very nice setup you will have mate, would love to see some pics of your setup

Good move.
Man, I waited 3 weeks for my power rack to be galvanised. I wrang them after the first when they said it would be done and they told me they LOST it, I yelled at them 'HOW THE HELL DO YOU LOSE A 100kg RACK?'

i can understand losing a set of keys, maybe a visa card....1 100kg power rack? If you can't see it....then you shouldn't be building it!!

Arrived today. Still waiting on the bench, bar, and some more weights which won't be here for another 2 weeks
So until then I'll be relegated to pull ups.Very impressed by the rack when I seen it at Markos', but when you actually put the bastard together yourself you appreciate how solid it really is. Loaded with weights, there is no way I can move it.
Will go to the local rubber store (Bunnings here don't sell it) and buy some 3mm thick rubber to go under the rack to protect my floor. Thanks Oli
. 
I put the money aside for one, but I'm going to be forced to move in about 2 months and I'd have nowhere to store it. At least Ill have to money for it after I move. Then again I may need it for something else...
Oliver04, sounds like you have the same luck with galvanisers that we do at my work.

Don't plan on dropping any - I'll throw them back onto the handles which protrude out the front of the rack if I have to. Can be used to do floor presses off as well, very handy.
Oli (it's BLBARCLAY, first two letters are my initials, call me Ben) the rack has soft rubber feet which won't mark my floors. If you read the top of the post where I posted the pic, you'll read I'll be placing a rubber mat underneath the whole show, for which I thanked you for the idea
