Tools you will need for this project:

1/4 in. threaded rod (12-20" in. long)
1/4 in. nuts (2)
1/4 in. washers (2) (make sure it's large enough to go past the hole in the weight)
2.5 lb weight (get one with handles)

Total cost should be under 4 freakin dollars cuz it's awesome!

Screw on nut and then slide on washer. They should be about 1 1/2 in on the rod.

You should also watch ebay... I got a full body stabilizer for $40. Talk about the deal of a lifetime! ;)

Do you have a picture of it when it is all put together? Or in use?
