Asked a friend to make it back when glutes were a thing. This actually works really well for squats and duck walks. Value 10/5 because it was free. Would help if I could load it with more of the smaller plates, but I suppose that's a limitation with all of these devices. Used occasionally to do pulley things, but was too bulky and the carabiners didn't fit on it well.

IF YOU HAVE PIECES OF EQUIPMENT AROUND AND KNOW PEOPLE THAT HAVE THE EQUIPMENT TO MAKE YOU STUFF WHEN THEY ARE FREE TO AND THROW THEM A FEW EXTRA YOU CAN GET SOME REAL GREAT DIY PIECES LIKE THIS... FOUND SOME OLD KNURL HANDLES AND FEW WELDS AND NOW I HAVE KNURLED HOLDING PIN AND ATTACHMENT FOR CABLE WORK TOO!

Truck rotors mounted to piping with chains at top. 35lbs each. Simple and does the trick. Your one missing piece to get strong.

I didn’t center the hole very well in the cap. Other than affecting my perfectionism, it doesn’t hamper performance. I probably could have gotten something for just as cheap as making it, but whatever. I don’t love my DIY pulley system, so I guess I’ll just need to buy a horse stall mat gripper to make owning this worthwhile.

Took a plumbing flange and steel pipe to make the base of the loading pin. Then I drilled a hole through the top and placed an eyelet so I can hook a carabiner on it. Nothing fancy but gets the job done.

When Massenomics dropped the world famous Horse Stall Mat Gripper there wasn’t a choice but to build a loading pin as fast as possible. This one I built is the same height as the Rougue loading pin. This loading pin I fabricated was used to set the women’s double hand world record in the Massenomics Horse Stall Mat Gripper Challenge.
