Teemu I Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Put together a couple of loading pins for standard plates to get more use out of those plates. This is a short loading pin made using a big bolt, a washer, some duct tape around the bolt for snug fit and bolt was then inserted to the 25 mm pipe. I figured a short loading pin good be useful for exercises such as doing swings with RT handle, for example. This longer loading pin I made in similar way, except there's a threaded rod inside the pipe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Electron Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Hey man, had a go at this today, but I need some help. I got 3/4 bolts and a pipe of the same diameter but can't find an eye nut for that size anywhere. What size are you using here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Electron Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Yeah, I'm just trying to find a good way to fasten it all together with an eye hook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teemu I Posted October 23, 2012 Author Share Posted October 23, 2012 One I used is a metric eye nut. Not sure where you could find one. I would think you could find almost anything on McMaster there. So I've heard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geralt Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 (edited) I have several universal tablelegs from the local hardware store. You can get them in the 30mm fit and 50 mm fit. They work perfectly. The part were you screw them under the table holds the weights. Drill a hole through the other end, and put a bolt through it with a nut. The hook a carabiner on the screw and presto. Couldn't find the right picture, but this is the idea. I have seen them in practical every hardware store. And they cost just a few bucks.... Only my tableleg has a round and flat screw-attachmentplate. But you get the picture. Edited October 25, 2012 by Geralt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
