Finally got my row machine back from powder coating, assembled it, and it’s officially on the gym floor. Tomorrow will be its first real test on back day, so stay tuned for an update.
So far, it feels incredible, and I’m excited to finally have this project finished. I spent about five evenings building it, roughly 3 to 4 hours each night, and have around $1,000 invested in materials, including powder coating, custom pads, linear bearings, and hardened bearing rods.
