**** UPDATE NOTES: I made updates to the US Standard measurement to make them more accurate and added a decimal to fraction conversion chart. Also, due to security reasons by my web-host provider I am no longer able to offer XLS downloads. I have also added a METRIC chart. Both are available through the link below! Thanks for watching! ****

High-strength Concrete Mix (crack resistant if you can find it) 80lb bag ~ around $5 Dollars
8" Concrete form tube - sold in 48" lengths ~ about $10 Dollars
1" metal conduit - sold in 10ft lengths (or iron pipe if you don't have the means to cut it) ~ $11 dollars
Duct Tape ~ $5 Dollars
Total Cost with materials to spare: Less than $30 Dollars
An 80lb bag of concrete will yield one set of 40lb dumbbells (makes sense right?). You will have left over form tube and conduit so the best value here is to make more than one set. The Crack-resistant concrete is the best because it has tiny fiberglass fibers in it that make it stronger. You definitely don't want to use any fast-setting concrete or motor mix. I made sets 40's, 45's, 55's, and 65's and used 5 80 lb bags.
You could also use the same concept to make barbell weights if you want.
