Keep your bar inside.
After waiting nearly 9 weeks for my Texas Power Bar; with no communication from the company, I cancelled my order after seeing the Rogue B&R bar was back in stock.
The only small dilemma I have is that I have a garage gym in a high humidity climate. I like the patina look - but not flat out rust.
I know 3-1 oil or WD-40 is mentioned for maintenance but I dislike the lingering smell of both. I’m curious if Japanese knife/sword oil will be suitable? I use it on some of my tools and it’s awesome stuff, but its viscosity is a bit different and DOES NOT come off unless washed.
Anybody have any experience with a bare steel bar? Am I overthinking this?

My husband made a pretty vertical bar hanger to minimize the aesthetic impact. It hangs right next to the door and is very unobtrusive. You can get similar ones on Amazon for $40 or so.
Hahaha something tells me she can sense those pillows move from clean across the house.
This is similar to the one we have. Having a proper hanger for it lessens the likelihood of the thing falling over on me, or me tripping over it, which are two solid bonuses.
