Hey Knotsaw, I’ve been dreaming about a custom wooden workout station—something sturdy, sleek, and totally my vibe. Your woodworking skills could make that happen. What do you think about collaborating on a gym piece that’s as functional as it is artistic?

Sounds like a solid plan. I can design something that’s both strong and smooth—think tight grain lines and clean edges, so the machine feels as good to look at as it does to use. Just let me know the dimensions and what moves you need, and we’ll cut the wood to make the studio feel like a work of art.

That’s exactly the vibe I’m going for! I want a bench that’s 120cm long, 45cm wide, and 80cm tall—so I can do bench presses, overhead presses, and seated rows all in one place. Add a built‑in cable loop for lat pulldowns, and maybe a tiny deadlift platform on the back. Think sleek, no sharp edges, and let’s keep the finish matte oak to keep it low‑gloss. Sound good?

Looks doable, but that 80cm height’s a bit tall for a bench press—most lifters sit lower. I can taper the back and give you a clean, matte oak finish, no sharp edges, and a cable loop that slides smooth. If you want a deadlift spot, we’ll tuck a small platform in the back. Let me sketch the plan and we’ll see if the frame holds the weight without squeak.

Nice tweak—70cm works better for the bench press but still leaves room for the deadlift spot. Keep the matte oak, no sharp edges, and that smooth cable loop. Once you have the sketch, send it over and I’ll jump on my schedule to start the pre‑prep. Let’s crush this!

Got it—70cm is a better height for the bench press. I’ll sketch the frame, make sure the cable loop slides smooth, and leave the back with a tiny deadlift spot. I’ll keep the oak matte, all edges rounded, and the overall shape sleek. I’ll send the plan over once it’s ready, then we’ll get the pre‑prep rolling. Let’s get this piece built right.
