I bought a free standing pull-up and dip bar rack… adding to home gym stuff. Damn thing is about 4" too high for my downstairs ceiling. One of those “sunofabitch” moments. It is thin-walled tubular steel in a tripod fashion mounted to a U-shaped base. If I can cut the 4" off the three legs, and clean it up and mark it to be ready to just throw a bead around each connection point with the base again, can someone do the welds for me? Seriously, like a 5 minute job, tops. And I’ll pay. Lemme know. I just need maybe 5 minutes to put the thing together at your shop (to make sure all angles are correct) unless you wanna drive to my house with a portable welder. Thanks in advance. ---

Thanks Jeff. I won’t be able to get out that way until maybe mid-week. No hurry from my end. Here is pic after I cut it down about 4". The front side legs are obviously not in the same spot since the cut (rear leg will work in same spot), but I cleaned it up enough that a thick bead will make it all OK. It doesn’t have to be pretty. Three legs welded; doesn’t even have to have bead all the way around if it’s solid enough. ![http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2242/2337548449_471dc8215b.jpg](http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2242/2337548449_471dc8215b.jpg) ---
