I made my 12” log with 12” x 10ga. Tube and 3/16” plate steel. Handles are 1-5/8” diameter pipe and loading sleeves are 2” diameter pipe. Log is 57-1/2” long with 11” of loadable sleeve length on each end making it 79-1/2” long overall. Empty log weight is right at 120lbs. If someone is interested in making one similar I could provide further specs if necessary but I think what’s fun about fabricating your own strongman equipment is you can make it however you want!

No brainer to own this once I had started training strongman. I think the orange really pops next to our orange racks! JenP

I can’t believe how many years we went without having one of these. I think we could have saved our barbells from a lot of wear if we had one sooner! I will get anything in this green whenever I can. JenP

I’ve only made stones using the Slater Stone Molds, that being said I thought they were very good. Done properly they really don’t leave much of an equator when the two halves of the mold mate. Gorilla tape and shrink wrap are a must and they hold very well without much cleanup when you’re finished. I nested my stones in galvanized tubs filled with sand and they stayed what appears to be perfectly round. I should note I did use a pencil vibrator and that worked well to not leave much for “rat nests” in the stone. Patched with hydraulic cement and then ground with a worn out flap disk to smooth the stone. Seal and all done. Added integral concrete color to my cement mix for added fun. Don’t forget to add the color to your hydraulic cement patch as well if you want a uniform colored stone.

I don’t own one myself ($$$$$) but I was able to use one and it definitely feels like it defies the laws of physics. How can something be heavy and light at the same time? Controlled yet chaotic? A lot of fun to play with but certainly not a necessity.

Probably a bit of a vanity item as you’re just paying more for the color. Definitely a different density type than the other rogue bumpers. Less bounce. They are also narrower. Same quality. Couldn't imagine living without my fleck 15’s!

Good starting point for grip work. Especially for the girls. I have the pink and just started by using them on dumbbell accessories. Instruction manual is helpful on how to place them for what you are doing.

I don’t have comparisons but my only complaint is the super tight fight when trying to get plates slid on. That is a fight. Other than that is a perfectly capable trap bar. I had ended up only paying around $60 for it on an Amazon sale.
