{"product_id":"sys-grp-bench-grip-akros-forg3d-edition","title":"SYS-GRP BenchGrip Akros — FORG3D Edition","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe BenchGrip Akros Set is built around one pod, the Harpyie Minimus, because narrow stock is its own problem: face frames, rails, and door stiles sit outside standard pod geometry, where a square pod gives point hold or overhangs thin material. Harpyie's elongated seal spans the length of the board instead. Like every BenchGrip FORG3D Edition set, Akros arrives resolved rather than as a parts list — four pods with the AnchorDogs, rail inserts, hardware, and tubing to run them, staged in a Systainer³ S 76.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBuild Your System\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBenchGrip Akros ships in one configuration: the narrow-stock set.
