Southeast Georgia/Northeast Florida Noob

   Hey all,

Noob here from the FL/GA border just breakin into the games!  

Competed in the NE Fl games and already sent in my registration 

to Tallahassee coming up.  Also started putting together some 

training stuff, got a heavy hammer I built out of some old plates 

and pvc and am going to melt some old lead wheel weights and 

chain into some weights for distance/over bar.  Only thing I am 

having a problem finding is a handle for those.  I know I can order 

a handle from some of the manufacturers of highlands 

equipments, but really don't want to throw down $30+ for a handle 

when I have less than $10 on the rest of the equipment.  And 

welded rings are near impossible to find here with a diameter 

above 2".  Any suggestions?

Cheers,

Gary

	Check out this older post. Also use the search feature above and search the body or subject on the word handles to find a slew of others. I am on the coast and I was able to pick up a couple of handles (clam or shellfish rings) at my commercial fishing store.
