ideas for a strong hook
Our team spent a lot of time searching the internet to find a hook to hook onto the horizontal bar that could hold over 100 lbs. We didn't have much success.

Can anyone give ideas where to buy one or how to make one? We are a young team, so we don't have much fabrication experience. It would be better if we could buy one then figure out how to attach it to our ascension mechanism (which we are still working on too). Right now the hooking spot is a horizontal piece of steal, so if the hook was connected to a flat piece where we could just screw it onto our steal plate, that would be perfect!

Thanks!
