    I dont know the exact amount but I know it was around $180ish:) I still need a metal pipe to do pull ups with so by the time I add that it will be around $200.

    Looks awesome! I don't have a picture, but I made my own out of wood as well. I love it! It was only 100 dollars in materials, and is pretty easy to build. :)

    Awesome.

    (I am curious how heavy the pins could handle though.)
