I love old-school t-bar rows. However I don't like holding the bar as I lose range of motion (unless I load it with all 25's) and I'm tired of always hunting for the pulldown v-handle, so I made my own handle. I picked up 2' of chain, cut 2 5" pieces of 3/4 pvc pipe and a couple chain link connectors. It works great but I find it slips (as the v-handle did sometimes) so I actually slide it between the inside collar and the plates.

Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a pristine, well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, used up, worn out, and shouting, "Holy #$&^%$^... What a ride!!!"

It's just a short pressdown / curl bar that's got a bend in the middle where it hooks to a cable.
