Norgaard Posted March 5, 2018 Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 19 minutes ago, @mu said: The diameter of the PVC tube is like 3.8 cm / 1.5 inch. Circumference is ~13.5cm. I used a DIY tutorial for PVC parallettes, I can't remember which one though (something like this: https://www.kohlercreated.com/crossfit-home-gym-staple-diy-parallettes/) I made the "feet" a bit longer to provide more support because they are higher. Well, I just made the list with measurements, my father-in-law made them For assembly, I think he went to a shop where they have a heat-base device to seal parts together. I remember using glue for mine, but one of the legs was uneven, because I didn't think the glue would work that fast :P. Thinking of ordering for a higher set like yours. And then at one point build love and heigh wooden paralettes , one of the end pieces of the feet broke off, and the right paralette started to rip all the way trough, so at one point i'll fall right on my bum 1 Quote Be like water my friend Link to comment
@mu Posted March 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 oh yeah wooden classy ones so far mine have been quite resistant, they are bending a little bit here and there and the feet are not as straight as they used to be (they have turned a bit, one is visibly coming inward). But so far so good. I like that height too, with props, it's versatile enough. Except for working handstands, I haven't really tried yet. I would need to get some prop to jump from.... I have no space to bail out on the side. I don't mind rolling out of it, I do it for handstands on the floor or for failed bent arm presses on parallettes. But the added height is still a bit...scary.

Elastigirl Posted March 6, 2018 Report Share Posted March 6, 2018 Wow, our flow is getting so long. I did it after my workout, and about half way through my arms were shaking. I think my form is improving though.
