Hi. My name is Darek and in this video I’ll show you How to Make very cheap METAL WEIGHT PLATES DIY. I paid for each $2.5.
The most important is to find the old car flywheels. You will get them in the cars junkyard, if you choose a rusty, cracked or have other damage then they will be in the price of of scrap metal.
You need to choose the same or very similar. As you’ve seen I used flywheels of the Ford Fiesta and Opel Astra II, but depending on where you live, you will certainly find suitable.
Keep in mind the thickness of your bar, so after doing plates not found out that they can not be put on the bar
Sprocket, which I removed was not attached any screws, it was just simply pressed into the wheel. It is in the vast majority of cars.
If you do not have a welder, the pipe does not have to be. You can skip this step. I did it to make it more stable, but without this it will be okay
To clean, use a wire brush, I helped myself an angle grinder and went much faster than by hand.
Weight after finishing is some about 6.8 – 7.2 so rounded up to 7 kg.
Remember, the bigger the engine, the flywheel will be heavier
