Edit: it's bad enough for me to not have an interest in trying another sig. Maybe one of my make believe friends will let me shoot a 365 and I'll want to bring more everyday*.

Kinda thinking my next handgun purchase will be a CZ . . . maybe a P-01. Haven't decided, but the gears are turning.

Just finished up changing the expansion tank on the Ducati. I hate working on motorcycles.
About to take it for a spin to make sure it's all good then hop on the other bike and go get that TX22.

Then I built an equal height 3 layer (all plywood) inner platform to sit inside the rack that's flush with the main outer platform. Top layer of plywood for both is the $50+/sheet fancy smooth hardwood stuff.How is your rack set up? Do you have it bolted down or just in place, and is it also on top of the mats, or are they cut to fit around it? I may be slightly upgrading my home gym shortly.
I cut the 8'x8' platform's central plywood runner down to about 3'6" wide so that it matches to the inside of the rack and so that there's more margin for error than the full 4' method (uncut ply down middle) that way the plates don't ever land half on the stall mat and half on the wood (having bumpers land on that 90* edge would bug me) and of course it looks tits when it matches
Current

PreviouslyI did not bolt it down, instead, I stored 45 lb iron plates on all four corners. Same with my old smaller rack, though it would slide around when like racking the weight for squats.

Yeah, I think I'll KISS and wind up just sticking it on top of a couple of those mats and calling it done. Thanks for the pics.

The big one moved less than half an inch in a year just sitting on the mats, also with plates on the corners.

edit - was also the first time i took the D50, no problems

The one I'm looking at is fairly cheap, but it has a cable attachment for the back and weight storage pegs available, so other than what I'm lifting I'll have the weights stored on the rack in what will be center ish helping to hold it down. I guess that should probably be fine then.

The Blade Tech carry belt looks cool too. It’s ratcheting so very fine adjustments. All the guys at my local range/shop use them and keep telling me to try one.

Back from John Wick 3 . . . pretty good flick. Not as good as the first but probably better than the second. Action scenes were many, long and entertaining.
