Made a pullup bar for my garage

Ignoramus4546 said:

I welded the brackets from 3/16" pieces that I had. Each bracket
is supported by eight 1 5/8" screws, going into the garage ceiling
joist. The bar is held by 3/16" chain.

The bar itself is a military surplus junk "FIXTURE, ENGINE MAIN"
that I did not know what to do with.

You see, I had this worthless piece of junk that I did not know what
to do with, until I recalled that I wanted a pullup bar.

You know, I checked out Misc.Fitness.Weights recently and found that
the volume of posts has gone way down. What happened, did people stop
lifting weights?

That makes sense

Not everyone has a newsreader that will allow them to killfile Bill
Davidson when he changes his username with every post. Some can't
handle that.

BTW, I notice that you're using slrn, so you can do it. For a
functional filter string on his X-Trace header, see:

Cool! Now I can go see what I am doing wrong.

How do you know where to post? I use weights all the time. I think
about my weight training more than I think about my diet and aerobic.
I am trying to tone and also keep my strength.....Strength training
requires weights....I use them every day. My doctor encourages it in
women over 50. I found this group because I needed to lose weight
before my daughters wedding in June, but I really have a great interest
in weights, how people use them....how much weight I should use.
Maybe I will check that group out. I don't think people have stopped
using weights, but I think support for dieting is the first place you
would look if you were trying to lose weight and know very little about
posting to newsgroups. I know I just took a shot at this first. Plus
I knew Beverly posted here and I used to post on a cycling group but
couldn't take all the drama over there. I never said anything right.
As soon as I joined everyone said I would give up.......Well its been a
couple years now, and I am still riding. Phoney on you Bikes.misc.
