climber511 Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 I'd like to invite anyone interested down for the Ohio Gripmas get together at my place December 18 th at 12 noon. I've bent and hung up the Gripmas tree and decked it out with bent steel (finally a use for that stuff). I'm even going to sweep the floor. Gripmas presents for all attending - cheap stuff, of course. So come on down and have some fun. I can't wait to meet some fellow Gripboard members. PM me for direction.

Sean Dockery Posted December 7, 2004 Author Share Posted December 7, 2004 I think Climber511's got plenty of stuff to keep us busy. No need to bring stones, etc. Bring the grip toys, and yourselves! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T Sands Posted December 8, 2004 Share Posted December 8, 2004 (edited) From what I hear, we may have to be clear on the term small for Eli as he is a beast. When I think of small, what maybe 100-150 pounds, now when he thinks of small I am not to sure that is the range that comes to mind. Chris what are you calling small? I too would like to mess with some stones but I doubt I will budge much over 150, but we'll see. Eli, what do you have and what are you bringin with ya? Countin the days....

nickr104 Posted December 8, 2004 Share Posted December 8, 2004 the olny round stones we got are 195 and 260 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T Sands Posted December 8, 2004 Share Posted December 8, 2004 Nick, What do you think the odds of me pickin that 195 off the ground are, realistically, you know the shape and the texture and my approx. strength level...? T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eli72 Posted December 8, 2004 Share Posted December 8, 2004 I have limestone and granit, I'll pick the most round ones and bring an array w/ me say 75-300lbs I have to weigh them this weekend, we have piles so I'm sure I'll find some we can use I'll bring our Homade toys: RT, pinch block, vertical bar, and probably 2 kegs w/ water. I think Jake is bringing a 2.5"thick bar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stew2 Posted December 8, 2004 Share Posted December 8, 2004 Doc, Maybe the genetics in that family aren't the secret.Maybe it's the chili. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Dockery Posted December 9, 2004 Author Share Posted December 9, 2004 If that's the case, I'm stealing Jake's recipe and living off that chili for the next 20 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sean Dockery Posted December 13, 2004 Author Share Posted December 13, 2004 (edited) Just 5 more days.... Board up the windows, lock up your grippers, evacuate the village!

T Sands Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 (edited) Is anyone bringing anything to bend? Horseshoes? Ironmind nails? Grade 5's or 8's? Frying Pans? Not that I will do it, but it would be fun to watch. T Edited December 15, 2004 by T Sands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Dockery Posted December 15, 2004 Author Share Posted December 15, 2004 I'll bring some bending stock. Horseshoes, nails, bolts...I've even got a skillet around here somwhere. I'm sure Stew will do some bending. Nicki's got some cards to tear. Beyond that I don't know. Anyone want to bring some 3/8" rebar? My 1/2" stuff is too tough right now. Don't worry Travis...we'll keep you busy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
