DU Alternated between the 1" and 1.3" wraps. Relatively long session. 1" singles conventional DU - CRS 9/32" x 7" - CRS 9/32" x 6.3" - Grade 8 bolt 1/4" x 6" 490lb batch I only have one more rated G8 :(. - CRS HEX 7mm x 7" - DR 7.2mm x 7" - DR 9/32" x 6" 1.3" singles modified DU - CRS 5/16" x 7" - CRS 21/64" x 7" - 304H increased carbon stainless 5/16" x 6.7" I was able to put it to 40+ (43), but I hate this material so much. At least drill rods and C45 are interesting, this is just boring and stupid hard. Anyway I think I have two more pieces then I'm looking forward never bending it again. - CRS SQUARE 7mm x 6.7" - 35 CrMo-A 5/16" x 7" When it clearly got to 40+ I stopped, too tired. - Stainless bolt 5/16" x 6"

I agree the GM150 is very well built, I recently bought one. How do your readings differ between the two? That's If there is any difference at all?

I watched this on my phone and on my iPad. Not a close. Then I watched on a full size screen at the office, and it almost looked like a different video. The gripper actually dips below the screen, and when it reappears, for a microsecond it looks nearly closed, maybe one 40th of an inch away, and it could have touched. But watching it right now on an iPad, it looks to be maybe 1/12th of an inch away, which is a ton. Cannon seemed to describe it best, as it was blurry. There is one person I will never show this video to, and that is my son. When he was in his twenties, he was looking over RJS’s shoulder as Dr. S was reviewing a camera still of an attempted close of mine. He said, “That’s a close, dude”. A week later, my late brother showed a picture of a photo HE had taken to his place of work (State of California EPA) and four PhD’s all thought it was a close(I took four attempts, and I know the 1st and the 4th were not closes). My son, now in his 40s, who, after serious injury and surgery can still deadlift over 600 lbs., had a tee shirt made for me that said on it: “REAL Captain of Crush”. I wore it out and threw it away many years ago… As Jimmy Carter, one of the most respected and disrespected Presidents in US History once said “Life is not Fair”. If I can let this go, you guys can too.

Nathan Holle style training

I think having a nutcracker style is the best option to avoid copying. parallel handles give bigger numbers anyway…and isn’t as gripper accurate. although, the design wouldn’t be as easy. Would have to have a Vulcan style setup with the gauge in between the top rails. And adjusting the handles spread. or just keep it as is…probably would drive the price up even further.

Grippers T 10 BH 1 5 BH 1.5 2 BH Standard Cu 1 BH LH hard GG4… all four attempts were 2-3mm from closing RH easier Pt…3/4 attempts were 1-2mm from closing Setting practice LH 2 singles with my hard Pt RH 2 singles with my GHP 6 38mm block set reps LH 1.5 3x5, 8 RH Au 3x4, 5 Been a tough work week. Mulling over focusing on 2 grip events, Horn and Flask, and keeping the grippers in a maintenance mode. Then beginning in 2025, focusing on grippers exclusively. Have a great night.

I own both (along with the Baseline BIMS Functional). I like Vano's design overall the best, my only complaint is the downgrade on the newer models to a plastic handle adjustment knob. The GD Dyno 150 is very well built, however. I agree, they most likely copied Vano's design idea, though the two look nothing alike. The measuring gauge itself is nearly identical (except that you can change units on the GD). It even has the same pitched "beeeeeep" when you fire it up compared with the Grippermania.
