I've seen the pics.. <---thats you hitting your head! :redneck:



EDIT: Do they only come in 3ft lengths?!?! :eeek:

 

[WHITE TRASH1]

Yup 3' is what they shipped to us. Every piece of padding needed to be cut down so it wasn't a biggy.

SpeedMart in Burlington has the good stuff, in multiple colors. That cheap stuff they sell at Summit etc is just that, cheap. Get the good harder stuff. Get the padding that does not wrap all the way around the bar, but only covers about half of the tube. :corn:

Its called High Density Padding.

Check out Mclenddons or even lowes/ home despot. Look for pipe insulation, may not be as hard as that stuff but it still protects your noggin, and is cheap.

The stuff I have, you're gonna have to cut to put on an existing cage anyhow. While you are cutting it, just take a little extra out to make it fit. We're only talking about less than a 1/4" The stuff I have isn't exactly 1-3/4. 1.73", I mean, thats a whole .02" less!!:haha:

Safety is not the place to go cheap. With that concept, you could build a roll cage out of PVC pipe and fittings, because its cheap. :fawkdancesmiley:

that's actually what my finished product is going to be, I am using the DOM for mock-up, then i'm putting in CPVC piping.:awesomework: Then i'm going to cut up one of those foam camp matresses and wrap it with duct tape to the pipe. Should hold right fine!


Ya, this is something I don't want to skimp on... $50 in padding or $50,000 in medical bills..... :eeek:

 

[PHILLBILLY1]

I think I am going to make up a cage out of rebar from work and then covering it all with my padding so it looks like a real cage:redneck:

Yeah, I think 1/2" rebar, and then wrap it in duct tape until it measures 1.73", and then put the padding on it!:haha:

No welding required either. I'll just tie wire it all!:haha:

YES! Tie wire! Maybe to ensure good base plates use a bag of Quikrete on them. :haha:
