First Build

02-10-2025, 01:10 PM

This is my first build based on the "How To Build A Speed Bag Platform Under $100!" video on YouTube. This one cost me $88 in materials. Being a tall guy, this was a pain to mount with only short people to assist, but it's up now. Looking forward to participating in the community. Have a good week.
