So I built a homemade pull-up bar like shown halfway down the page here:http://www.angelfire.com/ny5/shenandoah/Grunt/Bodyweight.html
It's made out of pipe and joints and stuff. My question is, it gives a little when I put my weight on it. I'm wondering how much weight it can take before something gives (pipe bends or threads shear off). I don't want to be doing pull-ups one day and have it snap on me....
