Questions

Do I pay anything now?

No. A reservation just holds your spot in line. When the batch is ready to build, we'll email you to confirm the details and take a deposit. Nothing is charged before that.

When will the founders' batch be ready?

We're finishing and testing the prototype now. Everyone on the list gets the timeline as soon as we have it, and reservations get first pick.

Where are you located?

We're in Calgary, Alberta, and we also do pickups in Edmonton. Large pieces are local pickup or delivery only for now.

Can I put my own name or brand on it?

Yes. Add it in the personalization box and we'll send you a mockup before anything is built.

Is it built for a commercial gym?

Every bench is welded from heavy steel and proof-loaded before it leaves the shop. If you're buying for a gym, mention it in the notes and we'll talk through what you need.
