Step 11Tie 'im up! (With Elastic?)
Get out your surgical tubing and tie one end off on the U-bolt that you bolted to one of the posts.
Weave the surgical tubing from the U-bolt through the U-bolt on the arm, through the hole on the other post, back through the hole on the post with the U-bolt, and continue the pattern (you don't need to tie it off any more). Make your windings tight, but don't stretch it, just try and minimize slack.
Generally, 3 winds works pretty well. With a heavier bar, use 4-6 winds.
Tie the other end off either on the U-bolt attached to the post or somewhere else - your choice.
Make sure you use good knots - you don't want this slipping under high tension.
