Prolly not the best option being from Oz and seems expensive. Sure you can't find one?

What's wrong with the ones that hook under a door anyway? They seem to be a lot cheaper and do the same thing.

I've got both one on my cage and one in a doorway upstairs. The one for the doorway work fine. Just make sure you get one that has anchors that screw into the frame. I've had me and my GF on a door mounted bar and it has held us both...not that I'd reccomend it. My door one is a Weider- even Wally World should have those in stock.

Suggestion. Take this pic to your local High School shop teacher and ask if he has a student who can weld it up for you. You pay the materials (probibly like $25) and the student gets extra credit.

That is a good idea! And if that works out design a squat rack... just steal a design from the internet- modified for your needs.

	What this means is that when we drop a ball and it falls to the ground, it wasn't the ball that moved (down to the ground), but the ground that moved (up to the ball)
