Here is a shot of the bar before the tape and collars. I've included a shot of the collars as well for reference. Right now I'm just using another set of lockjaw clamps as my stop.
Hopefully this blog will keep me and my friends motivated and will inspire others to get fit. Would love to have other workout partners but my crazy a$$ schedule (working out super late at night) doesn't really work for most if not all people.
Looks great, going to attempt myself. Where did you score the end caps? Got a part number per chance?

ReplyDeleteWas wondering where you got the collars from..? I've looked everywhere for something like that for my bar... No luck
ReplyDeleteCheck out McMaster-Carr. Dimension is 1-15/16" ID. Hope that helps! Also, Grainger should have them. And eBay.
