I'm planning on making my own stall bars with metal bars. What is the recommended range of thickness for the bars? I came across someone with some leftover steel tube that is 1.6" in diameter. Would that be too thick?

DIY stall bar thickness

You will not like the 1.6” rails, the extra diameter will fry your grip and forearms before anything else has a chance to train. Approx 1” will be much more comfortable.
