Description

This lifting pin allows for lifting weights suspended from a portable hang-board or other grip strength training tool.  Often used by rock climbers training with a “no-hang” or “block-pull” protocol, a lift pin allows for quick changing of weights and keeps weights better aligned than simply connecting them to a sling or cord loop.

 

The two part assembly allows for optimal layer-line orientation for both sections of the print and the wedge joint (that can be glued) creates a strong connection that takes advantage of the strength of the wall loops to make this print strong enough for its intended use.  I'd recommend the following settings (or greater):

  • 5 wall loops
  • 25% gyroid infill
  • 6 top shells
  • 6 bottom shells
  • 0.2mm layer height

I've given this thing a real swing around with the above settings and 40lbs of weight on it and it doesn't show any signs of failing.  However, your results may vary and you should use caution whenever lifting weights.

This has been really useful, I have used it with many different grip attachments and finger boards with zero issue, Printed in petg and I first tried putting 80lbs on it, swung and yanked it around with zero issues. Thats way more atm that I am using to train my fingers and grip. Thank you for the print.

Right on! let me know if you have any thoughts after using it far a while. I'd like to remake it with the cord being the strength of the pin rather than the plastic but just never came back to it.

using it on regular basis now, no heavy weights tested yet though, loaded it up to 20kg, no issues

Yeah I think the fact that a single hand can't really handle crazy amount of weight makes this safe for now. I'll try to get an updated version modeled before long. Thanks for the response!

Awesome print, I like the fact it's pretty light and reassembly is possible so you can even take it on trips with you and you most likely won't get stopped because it's not made out of metal etc. Thanks designer!

My pleasure! Thanks for the feedback, I'll definitely maintain that functionality when I redesign it soon. I'm planning to keep the base the same but create a modified version of the pin so that the majority of the tension is carried by cord to make it stronger. Not that it has failed on me yet, but I know it eventually could, whereas if I redesign to use a bit more cord then it'll likely never fail.

I'm thinking of how to 3D a modular pinch block and using small bolts to attach the various thicknesses of the pinch. Maybe using the fuzzy skin settings for different texture types :) I'm a novice 3D printer so using fusion360 for now is very time consuming but also learning it is very fun.
