anson Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 is that handle hollow alluminum? i'd worry about how sturdy this set-up is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apdwler Posted April 24, 2004 Author Share Posted April 24, 2004 Hollow, but steel. I don't see it breaking, but you never know. I'm a little more consirned than I would be because of the trouble I had drilling it. Really needed a press... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anson Posted April 24, 2004 Share Posted April 24, 2004 here's one option, you can make the thing for around $40. i made the second KB, i think those "Ts" would get in the way. BTW, great post, i'm always looking for ways to come up with homemade implements! http://geocities.com/briangl2002/kettlebell.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apdwler Posted April 25, 2004 Author Share Posted April 25, 2004 (edited) I just revised the article including a link to your main page and a solution for the T issue.... Im going to use your plumbing idea for another project soon. Edited April 25, 2004 by apdwler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anson Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 i didn't come up with this, i just found this on the web by searching. i've built 2 of these and they work really good. the only thing i's do different is to make the 3/4" pipe 1/2" longer than the 1" pipe ( so it would be 3/4" X 6.5 "). i think you'll like it!

skidmark Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 Nice ideas on your web page. I was laughing my ass off at the dumby on the reverse hyper. I don't know why but it was cracking me up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rikus_Khan Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 I loved the Kettleballs on the link -- http://geocities.com/briangl2002/kettlebell.htm if any of you want to I thought I would add that you can usually get elbows (90 degree bends) in a two sizes. Meaning one end could be 1/2 inch and the other 1 inch or 1 inch to 2 inch. I am not sure what the max will be but you could do both kettle lifting and grip training by increasing the size of the handle. Of course you could put a larger piece of pipe around top handle too and it be like a rolling thunder. Hmmm .. I think I will make one with a big handle.
