Parents Looking for gymnastics bar

[Jayfaas]

We just bought my daughter a gymnastics bar for Christmas and it only goes up to 5 ft tall. When my 8 year old swings on it, she will have to pick up her feet to not hit them. I was thinking about custom making some side bars that are longer, and while im at it, I was thinking about maybe getting a better bar that is actually competition material instead of the one we have which is a 1.5” fiberglass bar with wood cover. I know it would be easier to just go out and buy one already made but oh my God they’re expensive. I already have a good base. I just want to get a replacement bar that is the same material as competition bars would be and if anybody has any experience making custom ones, I would love to hear what you did to secure it. I could just put a through bolt, but I’m sure there are better ways.
