and do make it easy.(and if u dont want to use ur tube for stock handles)
hacksaw a slit into the t tube

it will make the poles slide in and out.
altough you will have to bolt it in

1.coles trolley poles don't work
2.wooly's one are the best but what you have to do is pull the plastic cover thingamjiggy off, you will find it almost imposible to get it in but with brute force it will make it.
3. because they are so hard to get in they stay stuck in their place, there is also still the option of bolting or welding the bar to be on the safe side.
4. you can try and pull the pole out but your best bet is to grab a hacksaw and start cutting
there now no more trolley pole questions!

coles trolleys are like the best ones in tamworth.
big w ones can work 2.
back in the day we found a trolly full of the trolly poles like next to a dumpster behind big w.
we ended up making like 50 bucks from that aha!

it depends what coles trolley
there are new ones with longer red bits and screws that are heaps easy to get out
then there are the old ones which are like woolies ones, these coles ones have small nuts that you cant get out so you need to shove a flathead screwdriver under the red shit and keep pulling and twisting till it cracks the stupid fucking red crap. then you can just pull it out :)

I've never used a trolley pole. :O

School techshops are the way to go. I reckon the crossbar I got from my school was 2mm thick chromoly. Light and strong, still hasn't bent since 2007 and it's rusty as hell lol.
Oh, and my bro has a really wide diameter alu crossbar he got from a walking frame hahahahaha.

But Seasoneds <3
