How are the holes drilled in fitness equipment such as this? The steel is usually around 11 gauge or so. I was thinking it could be flow drilled with a flush cutter, but the inside of the hole doesn't have the telltale build up.

Punched out at a factory.

Unlikely. Punching is cheaper, faster, and produces better results.

I usually mold them into the concrete.

Probably punched, as in pic.

If you want to DIY, drill it and finish with a step drill.

Punched probably.

If i was having to making one, it would be done with a MT2 to rotabroach holder in a drill press

this...all mass made exercise equipment is punched, not drilled, it would take waaay to long to drill each individual hole
>>
Just build it out of wood.

I thought this was a troll thread until you posted that picture and I realized what everyone meant by punched steel I thought it was /fit/ trolls talking about punching the holes with their fists.

If you're going to use it exclusively you won't need most of these holes so drilling the ones you really need won't be much of a hassle.
