It's more fun than pure PLing, but also WAY harder.


I think that as a general rule, doing 1 will carryover to the other to some extent (especially at our level). Look for comps in you area man, it's a long ass day, but it's fun.

Lol I figured I'd get more comments about the spoon than anything else.



< -- drink my milk straight out of the gallon.

 

[Sean1332]

Such a homo lookin spoon

That's actually a miniature shovel. So....


Suck dick.

 

[Sean1332]

I was gonna be surprised it fits in your mouth but you're so gay it opens right up

 

[Sean1332]

You're right though....it is a beastly spoon

 

[jimbuick]

I was surprised you didn't ask to shove it up my butt, I'm so gay it opens right up

Good to know? :scared:

 

[Sean1332]

Good to know? :scared:

You got me good ****er....touché

 

[jimbuick]

Still hungry.



Going to Wendy's.

 

[Sean1332]

**** yeah. Eat a spicy chicken sandwich for me..

 

[jimbuick]

Nope, just burgers.


Double stacks and bacon cheeseburgers.

 

[herderdude]

Triple baconator. They always look at me funny when I order a triple baconator, large fries, a large chili, large coke, and large vanilla frosty.

 

[jimbuick]

1 Double stack down.

This is what you get when you mix your bacon cheeseburger with your double stack.

Sweet plate, caveman.

Upon further review, I realize that that, in fact, is a plate. I thought it was a cutting board the first time I looked. I take back the caveman comment. Sweet ladle though!

If you guys are looking to buy strongman equipment or sleds, this guy sells out of Houston and his prices arent bad. Shipping I'm unsure of because I can just pick it up.

But if anyone's interested, he's a cool guy and the stuff is high quality. He'll fab anything you want to, if you don't see anything you want. Might be cheaperthan alternatives (he makes a prowler for 205, much cheaper than EFS). Site doesn't work yet, I just message him on FB for quotes and info.

Man, I wonder where Jim's been all day!

I'm glad you asked!


I've been making a mold for a 350# atlas stone!

[herderdude]

What the eff are you going to do with a 350lb stone?

 

[Sean1332]

What the eff are you going to do with a 350lb stone?

Crush 42" TV's with it. Duh.

 

[TheSaiyan]

not lift it

 

[jimbuick]

It's for my gym owner, he's got a 320 then 450 and wants a 350 for something in between.

Crush 42" TV's with it. Duh.

Empty box bro!

 

[Sean1332]

I bet I could roll that sucker down a hill pretty good.

 

[jimbuick]

not lift it

No, I'm definitely going to lift it.








Eventually.

 

[jimbuick]

I might use it like a sled and roll it up a hill.

Don't trip. Then we'll have to call you Indiana Jones.

 

[jimbuick]

I could have my username changed to that.....

It would make a good video for my YouTube channel.

 

[jimbuick]

What's everybody thinking about the PNE that JTS just released?

 

[NomZ]

What the eff are you going to do with a 350lb stone?

Let me pick it up.

 

[herderdude]

Who even works with the 450lb stone?? Jesus. I don't know what to think of the new book on Juggernaut. It would be nice to have, sure. But what makes it the be-all and end all? Why is it better than all of the other information out there?

Travis Ortmayer has a 600....

Idk, the gym owner is trying for the 450 I think. He smoked the middleweight at my comp, and is training for Nats currently.

Yeah, I heard Thigpen give a spiel about it at my PL meet. Doesn't seem like anything particularly special to me though.

So this is like a giant Chia Pet.....

 

[herderdude]

Nice. I just offered to make a small one for the kids at the gym. We'll see how it turns out, because next is a 240lber!

Something like that lol.

240 was the one I was gonna make.


All told that 350# ran me around $70 to make. Which is about half the price of a Slater mold.

 

[herderdude]

I was just going to dig a pit in the ground, line it with clay, stick some rebar in there so they poke out halfway, let it get hard, then pour the second half and stick the first half on top. Should be a little cheaper. I like the ol' plaster mold idea, too. How long did it take to make the mold?

An hour or so. Just laid the plaster around a stability ball, deflated the ball and pulled it out the next day.

I thought about doing the hole in the ground too, decided on the plaster mold though. That way it can be one solid piece instead of two, less likely to break.

Edit: deflated the ball the next day and pulled it out. I ended up using just under 3 bags of Plaster of Paris, you could use just 2 for an 18". Just have to find a ball and inflate it to 18" diameter for a 240#.

That ain't gonna work brah, placing the hardened half on top will ruin the non-set bottom.

Have you guise seen my concrete gym?

I thought he meant take the two hardened halves and put them together with concrete patcher or something similar.

Concrete gym?

You let the bottom get pretty hard before you stick it in there. I'm not doing this myself, my boss has finished more than his fair share of concrete.

What concrete gym?
