I have been working out at home. I got a cheap bench/squat rack set up. I don't have money to drop on a power rack right now but I want to cheaply add some safety stops for my benching and squatting. I read a lot of threads where people suggest saw horses but they don't seem safe if they shattered or and they seem like they are all too high for my squatting. Has anyone used car jack stands for this purpose? I can get a pair for about $50
