Build a Bike Repair Stand

Here is a bit of documentation on how to build your own bike repair stand. These things go for 130-200 bucks in bike shops, mine was about $60. This thing is also expandable to hold more bikes if you change the base. Adding the second bike on the back requires a bit more hardware but is pretty easy.

Here's a supply list for one bike with a clamp:

1 Pony 3/4 inch pipe clamp
1 48" piece(s) of 3/4 inch galvanized pipe
2 24" piece(s) of 3/4 inch galvanized pipe
1 12" piece(s) of 3/4 inch galvanized pipe
2 1" piece(s) of 3/4 inch galvanized pipe
2 "T" 3/4 inch fittings
2 45 degree 3/4 inch elbow fittings
2 3/4" end-caps

Here are some picture of the build.
