Then a banged a bar while carrying it & realized that it's ring was the

So I filled the bars with sand. They are heavy, but the noise is gone.

Wow... now that is what I'd call observant! :-) I wonder if foam insulation
(which is sprayed and expands on use) would work? Is the purpose of the
sand simply to fill the hollow part of the bar?
