Small Barbell

thingiverse

A compact, refillable barbell designed for convenience weighs one pound when filled with steel shot, or roughly half a kilogram, a perfect alternative to traditional dumbbells that often occupy significant space in gym bags. The tool consists of two distinct pieces, each manufactured separately, then joined via screwing, resulting in an ergonomic fit and balance in the hand during exercise. OpenSCAD code is offered for users who want to customize their barbell's design, a rare instance where customization is both affordable and highly practical due to its compact nature and weight capabilities. The interior space can hold around 120 cubic centimeters of materials like lead shot or sand when used as a makeshift weight substitute in home workouts without breaking the bank or compromising storage space significantly.
