Jared Goguen Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 So this a really simple way that I came up with to connect any rolling handle to any loading which makes its fixed and replaces the carabiner. It's super simple and super easy to make and I wanted to share it so that anyone that feels like making one can. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fist of Fury Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Great idea. This is very important when the handle has a sensitive surface, like steel or aluminum. Way easier than having protection over the loading-pin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh O'Dell Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Genius invention buddy! Just a thought I had, you could also put rubber strips in the slot where the rolling handle is held in place. Good Job! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wobbler Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 I like the idea to keep from dinging up the handles. A well cut piece of pvc might be able to accomplish the same thing too. I always thought the psychological trauma of having the handle bang around when you drop it helped though. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jared Goguen Posted March 24, 2017 Author Share Posted March 24, 2017 Overall I think there's a lot that could be done with this simple idea. I hope some of you experiment with it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wobbler Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Hard to sketch, but I was thinking use a caribeaner like normal, but have a piece of pvc with a slit in it that can kinda clamp on the outside. Don't know if I'd hang weight through the pvc on a pin like the metal design, but it might work. Slit all the way through one side of the pipe, and a notch at the top 180* for the other side of the handle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AKJV1769 Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Jared: Great idea, but you need to sell this. I Just placed an order yesterday with you and I could not find this on your site. Many people do not have the time or the means to make such a thing, but this is a great concept. You should be the one who reaps the rewards, as you thought of it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest I don't enjoy making these very much, and I try to come with equipment that is a dramatic improvement over what is on the market already or something new altogether. I know that if I don't enjoy it a lot making a few of them I really won't enjoy making 50 of them at a time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richcottrell Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 (edited) I can understand not wanting to do something because you just do not enjoy it. That said i do think this simple devise of your's is a dramatic improvement... and it is new altogether.

Adam Juncker Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 I made one out of square tubing and it works great. It doesn't work with my wrist wrench for some reason though..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Matney Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Wish I would have built one of these last weekend. Slipped out of my hand on the last rep Friday night and busted my 2.5" roller all to hell! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
