here's a pic of the inner collar set screw indentation on my 70's (i believe, no knurling) standard curl bar.

The B&R bar is made by York, in Canada.
I’ve got a B&R bar, and a couple of older York bars from the 80’s(ish) – a powerbar and a regular oly bar. I definitely prefer the B&R for squats. It’s as...

I needed some standards for a plate-loaded pulley so I picked these up today. The roundheads were a bonus. Anything special about the curl bar?

PM me if you need the db's and are in the DMV. I'd...

strikingly similar to current calibrated plates. If Vinko hadn't been the one to pose the question, I'd have guessed maybe that ad's just a marketing dig.

cool, thanks.

so what's a fatman? I'm guessing it has something to do with head shape. further guessing that one of the two db's in the attached picture might be yer fatman (neither are usa stamped). further,...

saweet, sk

That middle picture looks like one of mine (guessing you grabbed that example from earlier post?) - the rim of this plate is shown in the attached picture. It's the bottom plate, or left-most plate,...

that's a nice haul! congrats. I want.
bet you were weak in the knees when you saw those stacks...

just refinished these.
someone asked about paint coverage a few days ago - my set of 10-55 took 2 cans of Rustoleum Satin per coat.

Refinished the rack too. I struggled to find something to put...

Good man! Nothing wrong with UIC either. I think I saw phish there in the fall of 1998. Hard to remember... but those stories are probably for another forum.
EE 1999

I'd give that guy a call, maybe he knows where to find more of those old, rusty, worthless plates.
...and then go work on that backlog of email. Boiler Up (though based on that lab coat I'm smelling...

man, they look awfully cool bare. I'd be tempted to paint the lettering and clear coat.
Have they lost weight from the process?

curious to see how well that stripper worked. can you post a pre-spray picture?

thanks. clutter in the gym disturbs me for some reason and I don't have a ton of space so I've got a lot of wallmounted stuff going on

the Jacksons are standard size 10's Some years ago, I picked up 2 pair included in a mixed bag of plates that a guy had rotting away and burried in weeds behind his house. I didn't know what I had...

i didn't re-blue it. the sleeves were a little roached when I got it but the shaft was virtually rust-free. I did remove the sleeves. didn't see any markings. the sleeves barely spun because they...

yeah, went at it with scotchbrite pads and clr. it was in pretty good shape when I got it though. great deadlift bar. I think the knurling is perfect.

I've been peeping here for a couple years. Just wanted to say hi and thank you guys for the education, and yes, it was the shot of 2morerepz b-hole that motivated this introduction. Here's mine...
