PLATE PINCH TIP
Our local Home Depot has a variety of chains up to 3/8 inch. Any of them
will easily fit through the hole on an Olympic plate. Depending on what you
use you should be able to get multiple chains through the hole. This makes for grate micro
loading. For fatter chains, simply get some strong epoxy coated magnets, then attach your
5/8 inch chain pices to each side of the plate. These MAGNETS work great. The magnets should be placed right at the hole overlapping a bit on the empty space. This will make removing them easy.
Why the chains? Many of you may have discovered that is it easier to pinch objects off the
ground with 2 hands, then let go and hold/pinch the implement fairly confidently. But breaking the object off the ground with the single hand is a ball buster. The chains will allow you to work on breaking the object from the ground, then quickly get heavier as you approach lockout. This works.
