Making your own pullup bar is for those who love building their own stuff; it could also be a quick son-and-dad project. You can make a very strong pullup bar from hardware parts under $20 or even less if you already have a piece of an old pipe, fence post, or a shovel handle you do not need. I guarantee it is going to be better and way stronger than anything you can buy. Here is a brief parts list and then I go into more detail on how to assemble it:
Two tension bands......................$2
Two brackets...............................$4
Two carriage bolts with nuts and washers..........................$1
Two hex screw with washers...............................................$0.5
The bar (fence post with optional caps, shovel handle or a 1 inch gas pipe)........................................................................................................$9 to 14.
Tension bands are the most important thing for the project: they hold the bar. They are sold in Home Depot or Lowes in the fencing department and come in two sizes: 1-3/8 and 1-5/8 inch. 1-3/8 size perfectly fits the shovel handle or a 1 inch pipe; 1-5/8 size fits the 1-5/8 fence post. Your selection will depend on your grip size and whether you want to use wood or metal.
If you have all the parts, assembly will only take 10 to 15 minutes.
