The assembly is done with fairly large screws and a wing nut...but when I used the bars, it would jiggle and shake. I couldn't seem to tighten the wing nut tight enough to hold it steady.
My sister said she just got push-up bars that were all one piece; no assembly required.
I returned the Ironman bars...
 Badly engineered and packaged incompletely July 30, 2006

I had high expectations for these push-up bars since they appear to be better designed that competing products. Alas I was disappointed - but not by the design. Rather the problems are the little things.
For example, the counter sunk holes require a lock washer in order for the assembler to get enough torque on the wing nuts so that the bars don't wobble. None are provided. So I had to go to Home Depot and spend additional time and money on something that easily could (and should) have been provided.
Next, the wings on the wing nuts are so small that I had to get out pliers to get them torqued down tightly.
Finally, because the holes are counter sunk too deeply you STILL get wobble which causes the wing nuts to loose up over time requires you to get the pliers back out for retightening.
Get the picture? Pity, this product has such great potential. Perhaps they'll get it right on the next revision.
 Even a product this simple can have an idiotic design flaw... July 7, 2006

These are push-up bars. A very simple tool to: (1) extend a push-up's range of motion; and (2) ease the load on your wrists. For those purposes these are superb. They provide about 3" of additional motion and are very stable.
Putting them together the intuitive way, however, doesn't work. The two leg pieces on each bar have a divot in one side where logic would say the nut goes...only they come with wing nuts (for easy dissassembly and packing for travel), and the wng nuts catch the divots - leaving you with three options: (1) use them without the nuts fully tightened (not recommended); (2) putting a pair of pliers on the wing nuts to tighten them (but leaving them impossible to take apart easily); or (3) assembling with the divoted side toward the riser bar and putting the nut on the non-divoted side - a bit illogical, as it renders the divot vestigial, but it works.
