macaz Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Got one 9 pound shot-put a few months ago at an antique shop in Prescott Az. Found a matching one yesterday at the same shop! They were only $10. I can rotate them slowly like dexterity balls. I have a lot of room for improvement. When I drop them they scare that poor dog (Sammy) in the background. This was bought at the same antique shop as the shot-put. I didn’t know what it was but it seemed perfect to put a 1" bar through and add weight to. It is just shy of the inch dumbbell in thickness its 2.18" Plus it has a flat spot shown in the photo with manufacturer information I looked up the info and found that it is part of a big dent puller.

Jedd Johnson Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Dude, that dumbbell looks awesome. Petula is where they used to have wrist wrestling championships. You might have found a valuable prize there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macaz Posted June 1, 2011 Author Share Posted June 1, 2011 That is very interesting that Petaluma is where Arm Wrestling was a big thing. The thing is for sure part of a heavy dent puller, a big one at that @ 9 lbs. I think it’s strange to find it in an antique shop. The depressing thing is my Star Wars toys are in antique shops now.
