From desctip it looked like stringer was a way to reinforce the mount? I couldn't find pics to explain. Y don't you move next door to us? You'd be closer to fam
Yes
Yes. They have two or three different ones, though I don't recall what the difference was.

every day I am closer and closer to wanting to be a flip flops 12 months a year person...
The only reason I've seen people say they "needed" the 41" arms was for extra room for kipping pullups. However, the rack doesn't get any wider, so you also can't fold it in on itself like the 20 something version. The 40 something inch version just doesn't make any sense to me.

I wish they showed how it collapsed with the 41 inch arms?
I think id regret not getting the 41 inch arms because then you really are just doing strict pull ups and not much else you can use the pull up bar for (leg raised, etc) but you could get some rings
Im stil torn between ordering one of these and the likelihood of actually using it so much

you could do pull ups facing the wall but a lot of the stuff if you have any Kip or swing would be hard to do (but wouldnt be the end of the world)
I put a pull up bar that we can do stuff like this on in the garage ceiling but its really just too high ( i made some crates that we use to access it yuo an sort of see underneath it) but i admit its a pain to use - this pic doesnt really do it justice but it would be nice to not be 10 feet off the ground:

I recently tried to kip on one of those hotel gym cable machines and it was okay, but I'm pretty short and I hit my feet.
Can I come over for frozen drinks and fitness?

Had to re-up my gym membership...hadn't been going due to the small building size and there ain't no way I'm doing pilates out on a asphalt parking lot. Now with the weather cooling down they are going to start offering online/video classes. Hopefully they flick the switch on their end today so I can start with the pilates class tomorrow morning.
