Unique.

That's a big pan! I like the double handles and the smooth finish but thirty pounds is heavy. And the price? If I were buying CI I would lean towards Butter Pat cast iron. Comparable size Butter Pat...

Hot water and a little detergent. Just like cleaning restaurant equipment. Wipe the metal with an oiled rag after it dries.

Hold on there sonny boy, you're going too far!

I've hit a bag for years. I wrap, wear gloves and as long as I refrain from throwing more than a few hard punches do not suffer injury. If I do hit hard my arthritic right elbow will let me know it....

I like skate shoes.

Fantastic. Thanks for the write up.

As I approach seventy . . I'm thinking just maybe . . .

The Competition Powerlifting Bar is bare steel with chrome sleeves. The current Performance Powerlifting Bar is chrome with chrome sleeves. My older Performance bar is galvanized with chrome sleeves....

Oh yah, patina, that's it. That little bit will be a reminder to me that I need to wipe stuff down.

I'm no great talent with finishing sheetrock. I'll putz around with it come this summer or next summer. If you're lucky and get towards seventy years old maybe small things won't bother you so much.

After recently sheetrocking my 'bag room' at the far end of the basement I have finally put up some decent lighting. Formerly had one bare light bulb in that corner. What a difference.

Right now it's out of stock but I've been happy with my Eleiko curl bar. Cosmetically it's perfect and I can't imagine the needle bearing sleeves would leave you wanting more rotation. The bends are...

Good for you. I like having a leg press at home. Show us a pic after you get it set up.
