Hi all
I am wanting to make the below pull up bar for my 8 month old baby. So she can practice standing.
For the bar I was going to buy the 12.7mm dowel. What sort of bracket can I use to attach it to the wall per below picture? The bracket can be metal, just want a secure attachment to the wall.
wooden pull up bar
Doodling outside.
Fabricate (weld) a 'hook' system that attaches/detaches two arms - that ultimately support the bar.
Serious steel - something like 40 mm X 10mm and on it's edge with steel triangular wedges welded 10 mm back from the hooks.
Once the arms are positioned, with any flex down, these 'triangles' will meet the front and stop any further flexing. I think the mounting screws/bolts must be well above this point - not like traditional brackets.
Just a doodle thought.
Cheers.
