Anton.Torrella Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Traditionally we hit arm wrestling laying prone on the floor in Nate's basement after drinking and lifting for a few hours - but yea, an arm wrestling table sounds like a very civilized alternative 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acorn Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 I'm working on some keychain prize grippers that I hope to have done by the time I fly out on Thursday. I wanted to get a few done to sell as well but not sure I will have time to get them done in time. Made a new spring winding jig of even smaller scale for this. Roughly 40% scale compared to full size and doing 2 each in Naval Brass knurled handles and Solid Bronze knurled handles with one of those keychain grippers going to the promoter. Will get some pics up once the first one is assembled. Looking forward to catching up with all of ya'll in person. - Aaron 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anwnate Posted February 20, 2018 Author Share Posted February 20, 2018 Hey 4ForFeb'rs Letting you know that I promised Maureen that I'd put a donation box out at the event. Thank goodness so many sponsors showed up (TY all!) to take some burden off. I really like a no-fee event and plan on keeping it that way since I believe it makes it more appealing to newbies and... the fact that some people are shelling big bucks to get here and or stay at a hotel. That said...I wanted to explain it's presence at the event. I told her I'd put one up...and as we know...happy wife = happy life. This will be the last you hear of it. People have asked what they should bring. If we can get a few implements for the warm up area...it can only help. I've lost my comp sheet and no longer know who I asked to bring what. If you intend on bringing an implement...mark it WELL with your name please. Challenge items. Hell yeah bring them. Post comp feats are always a blast, whether at Chris's or Jedds...even I have a goodly amount of toys. Please ask any questions here on this thread...so others won't have to duplicate them. Thanks ...can't wait to see y'all! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Juncker Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 I weighed 1 of the hammers: 11 lbs. Seems to work good as a levering hammer. I just finished painting the handles and clear coating the heads. I hate painting. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anwnate Posted February 21, 2018 Author Share Posted February 21, 2018 Blockbuster too wide/not ideal for you? Can you legally key pinch 40lbs on the "INCH PINCH"? Probably... But just how long can you hold on for? Just how tough are you mentally? $25 gift certificate to 5 Guys is on the line for the person who can hang on the longest. Heaviest competitors (on down) will take the disadvantage by having to go first. This challenge will take place after we crown a 4ForFeb. bending champion. Good luck. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
