  1. I just got done welding this baby, i am making a seires of handles, this
    is the first. I was amazed at how comfortable it is to use, at first i
    thought it would be hard to hold but after a lil trying it out it works
    fine.

    here are the pics........

  4. Well, they wont get as dirty as the plastic handles from falls, but they
    look painful to land on wrong.

    Why? He has a product and someone may be interested in having one, and a
    little extra cash never hurts. Its only when he makes thirty different
    threads trying to sell them that it gets bad. Yeah I tried Owen's at
    Toque a little and I was worried on a bail of my fingers getting all
    tangled up being like wripped off or something. I think he later stopped
    using it for that reason. Keep innovating and it'll eventually work.

  10. Nice handle, Evan. If you want to keep it from shredding your thigns,
    maybe you should attach some plates along the edges (that extend to the
    screws) so hat rather than running into a solid piece of bar, you will
    slide along a piece of plate. Is that steel, chromoly or aluminum?

  12. that looks more comfortable to hold than a standard handle, I think. the
    normal ones are too curved, or maybe my hands are too big....
    I think you should attach a rubber handle to each side or something,
    like on bike handle bars. that would be much more comfortable, and
    safer. ya know, it reminds me of the Reeder handle. yeah.

  13. Evan,
    You might want to invest in some inexpensive rubber caps for the ends
    of the crossbar. These are readily available at your local hardware
    store and come in various sizes. What size tubing are you using?

  17. I'm sure David Stockton and Tom Miller could engineer them. Don't know
    what it would cost per unit to get the first batch produced, but it
    seems like a doable thing.

  19. those bars on bikes are called "aero bars" they are for getting lower
    and thereby more out of the wind.
