Home Made Dip Station
It is very easy to build yourself a simple dip station at home, if you already have a rack. A dedicated dip station costs almost as much as a basic power rack/cage, so why spend money on both. If you have a power rack, all you need to do also have a good solid dip station is to purchase a couple of thick tree posts. I bought a pair for GBP8.00 a few years ago and they still serve me well.
In this photo I place the poles across the supporting bars on the power rack, obviously the bars should be higher if if was going to use the dip station on a workout, but this photo is just to give an idea of how a dip station can be set up at home on a power rack/cage.

lol I see your rack doubles as a clothes line.
Nooo! I just don’t like the clink clink noise every time the bar touches the supports, so put a couple of old (very old) shirts I found over the bar to deaden the sound.
I’ve used that set up many times and it works great. Although the tree posts look easier on the hands than my olympic bar and an old 6′ standard bar.
