this is whats available- check your hardware store. For what its worth, the 80 or so for a solid steel 2" piece is worth is- it weighs 80 pounds or so, and you'd pay 60 at WalMart for 2 45's! If you look at it like that, it's not so bad. You could request 2inch OUTSIDE dia steel pipe, but I'd go solid- why worry- and the weight is always a help.

Alright, I'll see what they say tomorrow at Ace/Lowe's. The steel pipe could be an option but wouldn't I need a welder or someone to shape the outsides for me so the weights fit and all that?

No it'll be round- are you going the hollow steel pipe route, as opposed to solid steel pipe? Check yellow pages under steel vendors or such and call around, ask for bar stock- cold rolled if poss- and a price on reg steel and stainless. You'll be surprised. And they cut it for you.
Just get a straight 7 foot section of 2" pipe. Put 2 hose clamps on the inside, and two collars on outside, voila! thick bar.

I'm curious as to how it's going to go.

I think it'd be badass if you came back in with a pic tomorrow of a 2" bar.

I'm basically going to repeat your post since I'm so clueless about any of this stuff. Steel vendors in the yellow pages tomorrow. I'll update you tomorrow man. Night hunto, night pub.
