Does anyone have a drawing of a rig/device/setup for rating steel bars and would like to share?

I would also like to get a blueprint for this.

Aaron C. used to have a website with tons of steel rated… AZgrip I believe!?  
 

Not sure if it’s still around but I was a great tool back in the day!  
good luck brother!  😎🙏🏼

I reference this chart all the time, and I used the data for my estimated ratings page. I don't think Aaron's website has been updated in a while, but it's still a great resource.

Definitely looking for something that uses leverage. I'm not going to deal with weights, thats both impractical and expensive.

I have some ideas of how to do it but it would be awesome if somone has already done it and already has a system that works good, and would like to share it.

Yes if they want to, that's why I asked. What is your deal?

I rated some steel pretty much just like this earlier today. I used a loading pin but otherwise did it in almost the same way.

Not quite as elegant as Squeezus's rig, but it works. 😂
