Actually, that's quite impressive to have a patent with that much detail.

There is a lot of flotsam that Basile puts out, but that machine is one I would gladly use if it were in a gym.

I also like his modification(s) to the legendary Nautilus Duo Squat.

impressive isnt over engineering

all good engineering is simple

well done him for getting the patent

but the machine has never been sold and never will

it basically replicates a dumbell with 30000 moving parts

with all Basile's self-promotion etc. I just wonder why he didn't mention that there was a patent on this machine once.
