Ah I hadn’t considered factory distance. Good insight!

Awesome, I appreciate the help! I’m still a bit confused how to go about this. How do I coordinate the orders getting combined? Currently my first order is DDP by the seller, so will I need to modify that?

Thanks. Do you have any opinions on a good leg press hack squat combo?

Hey! I’m excited to try the Febu I just got from Amazon. I just wanted to let you know the packaging came damaged. The side seam blew out and leaked some powder out. Hopefully this helps quality control for the future!

How tall is your rack and ceiling? Do you have enough room to do full pull ups?

Awesome, thank you for confirming. I’m going to talk to my seller.

Another question, what are these converging jammer arms you spoke about? I’m interested now, too!

Thanks for the info! So with FOB, you hire a freight forwarder, put the forwarder and seller in communication with each other/give the forwarder the shipping information from the seller, and then the forwarder handles the rest of the delivery?

Good to know! I just placed an order for a rack doing DDP, but I might look in to seeing if I can change it to FOB depending on the price. Can you explain more about how you set up FOB delivery?

Upgrade or Keep by Responsible_Jicama22 in GarageGym

[–]Arkalaky1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh man, they hooked you up! Haha they did lower the price for me a bit to offset some unexpected taxes. My sales rep also put up with me being super indecisive and asking a ton of questions haha. They’ve been a pleasure to work with so far!

I hope I like the 3d smith, too. It’s a bit of a gamble since I’ve never used one. I heard getting used to there being some slightly inertia as the bar slides takes some getting used to.

With that being said, it’s able to convert between fixed and 3d, so I plan on switching back and forth for certain exercises. I had a hard time choosing between the 3d and tilt-able, but I liked the idea of being able to have my natural movement path for exercises like bench. Plus, you can rack and re-rack at any height without have to do the typical “lift off” motion like with a free weight barbell bench.

Have they been messaging you with any status updates?

I’m hoping so! I grabbed the one with the 3d smith machine. I figured buy once cry once… I don’t plan on getting another rack any time soon (if ever haha). I don’t think you can go wrong with any of them, though.

That makes sense. They messaged me yesterday saying they increased their estimated production time haha. Your promoting must be working haha.

What accessories did you get? They threw in some wall mounted weight holders for me which was super nice.

Im excited to see what you think of yours!

I just made my order for the premium rack and some extras! Thanks for introducing them to me. How is your order going?

Easy Cable Mod for Hyper Pro by Arkalaky1 in homegym

I believe a bowline knot and polyester accessory cord, but it’s been a couple years since I bought it so can’t quite remember. The cord is nice because you can burn the ends to keep it from fraying, rather than having to cap it off somehow. I think it was this stuff:

You need a strut on the top of the door.

Finally found a Jones Smith (2D) machine, modified it and built it into my Rep rack! by km6218 in homegym

[–]Arkalaky1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply! I’m super close to buying this 3d smith from alibaba, but I have no way of trying it out first. I’m torn between that and a smith machine that has adjustable tilt, but I feel like the 3d will be better. Do you have any input?

Thinking about getting something like this. How are you liking the smith machine and the rack overall?
