homemade wrist roller
Not completely happy with the design, but it's going to work for now. The power rack pin goes through a 1 1/2" PVC pipe at shoulder height, and I use the plate loading pin from my pinch block.

The rope is 425 lb. test nylon, and I partially melted the sheath (so it can't unravel) at the knot on the bottom clip and the loop around the pvc pipe. Then a pipe clamp around the melted loop of rope so it can't come loose. The pipe has been scored a little with sandpaper (to improve grip), and the ends deburred. I've already worked out on it once with a 45 lb. plate, no problems. I'd like to improve the way the rope is attached to the pipe, if anyone has any ideas I'd appreciate it.

I've used something similar to that and it worked great. The only difference is it had a smaller bar thing in the middle.
Oh, and if you wanna use less weight, or a smaller plate, hold it straight out when you do it. I did it with a ten and felt the BURN!!!Last edited by Aetolos; 11-15-2002 at 08:06 PM.
