14 inch and 30 inch diameter hollow balls

I heard about these on Dirty Jobs, of all places. There has to be some use for them.

Fitness's latest non invention

Valslide allow you to slide around the floor and exercise. They look really cool. You can easily take them with you. Two are ONLY $29.99. jValslide

Sounds really cool huh. The thing is it's a non-invention. They have been using a nearly identical product to move furniture for years. A quick online search lead me to Uhaul where you can get four for only $13.99. And I know I purchased a few a while back at the dollar store!!

When will it end? Isn't it bad enough we pay over $2 a pound for what is essentially scrap iron?

I've decided to place some videos of me lifting on Youtube. Right now I have a benching video up and hope to add some more soon. I'm also hoping to soon update my main page. I'm having some computer issue that have slowed me.

Concrete Mixing Bag

I just got a concrete mixing bag. It's made of very heavy, clear plastic. It is designed to quickly and easily mix cement. I'm excited about it, especially the fact that one person can pour the cement. I hope to have a full review soon.

They are available at this link, The Cement Solution. There is a video of the complete process on the site.

Atlas Stones

I've made several more stones. I can't say the exact weights, as I totaled my scale. For mixing the cement, I used a cheap (free after rebate) tarp and the Cretesheet method. See the video on there site. I couldn't find the product locally, or I probably would purchase it. The tarp works fine, but has torn after 2 uses and leaks. I put a wheelbawl top under it to keep the leak from making a real mess.

I'm having off and on problems with my keyboard. I hope to do some updates when I get it resolved.

A really excellent site with closeup pics of how to open a keg.
