Finally got the board up....

[NJspeedbagger]

Finally found the time to get up a board of my own, no more wondering if the bag will be missing or broken when I get the gym I go to. Nothing to crazy fixed position Valor CA-10 was $115 shipped free direct from them. Came with a crappy vinyl bag and link swivel. I actually had an ARC before I got the board so that got swapped out right away. I use some foam workout mats to adjust my height as needed but not a big deal. The platform is very solid and hits well. Now I will have time for more practice.

Very cool, Vic. I actually used the Valor CA-10 as the model for my own custom brackets. I used the same basic form. Then I went crazy with heavy metal and curved Arc support struts.

Nice job, looking good.

Was it tricky fixing it with that service pipe running across the top?

[BagBoy]

I like it! Does it need a sandbag on top or is it fine as is? Damn sandbags are ugly.. but they help.

they help like a band-aid helps

Thanks Rusty love those brackets.
Had just enough room above the pipe l used a long extension and impact gun luckily I have air in the garage, girlfriend wasn't happy about holding it up but hey it worked.
The board really doesn't move at all very solid so no sand for now, I am thinking of attaching another piece if I happen to come across a really nice piece of wood.

Awesome Vic, nice collection going there. How does your home setup compare to the gym's?

Caz It is night and day, it’s a big box gym Retro Fitness and they put up an adjustable Everlast but the knobs are already broken off and they bolted it ip with bolts that are to long so they bottomed out before they hit the frame. Everything shakes and the loop on the bag broke so they punched a hole in it and zip tied it lol
