I got my parents old bench in May. I think it might have even started out as mine, or I was involved in it's purchase in some fashion. It is a nice sturdy thing, but the padding was all kinds of worn out! See how thin that padding is? That is all board there baby!
So... being a crafty little thing, I bought some supplies...
I had to get a little retro. How do you like the sparkly vinyl? I LOVE it!
And turned it from a bunch of parts... (Good thing I am mechanically inclined, Thanks daddy!)
And turned it into this!
(Please excuse the horrible garage! I am working on it!)Now I just have to go get weights! Sad, right? I have the bench, and no weights! haha! SOOOO me!

Well, maybe you can take a nap on it! It looks plenty cushy/comfy! Love the red sparkles! Use The Boy for bench pressing! The wiggly-ness will only help build muscle! hehe
WOOOOOWHOOOO
LOVE IT!

most of our weights came from garage sales.. have you checked sales in your area? or criegs list (SP?)... ??? lots of people out there really want to get rid of the stuff they never use :)
You did a GREAT job covering that! Are you worried it might be a little slick? Wouldn't want you to slide off with barbells in your hands..LOL! Oh i know! Your sweat will stick you to it like glue!!! Ha! Jinx!
