The clean and jerk and the snatch, the Olympic lifts, present the toughest learning challenge in all of weight training. Absent these lifts, there are no complex movements found in the weight room. By contrast, the average collegiate gymnast has learned hundreds of movements at least as complex, difficult, and nuanced as the clean or snatch. In large part because most weight training is exceedingly simple, learning the Olympic lifts is for too many athletes a shock of frustration and incompetence. — Greg Glassman, http://www.crossfit.com/journal/2007/04/medicine_ball_cleans_by_greg_g.html

We’ve been working on our pull-up bars goodawful long. We think they’ll be done and installed in the next 4-5 days. The delay consisted mostly of finding a welder / fabricator to reliably take on the job. Once we were settled on our fabricator, a month went by before his shop was working. Today I’m taking them to be powdercoated, except that we’re applying a clear cover instead of a color.

Here are some relevant images…

I think you might have been too aggressive with the grinder, as in the last picture, they’re small enough to fit on a table. That is, unless that isn’t a chair behind them.

Or you’re giants or something.
