    metaldad messin around

    A little afternoon messin around. Made a tripod & holder for the phone & was experimenting with different camera angles




    In this second vid, I changed the camera angle & raised the platform , I've lowered it back since. I'm always going back and forth with my platform height. Getting used to the modified chainlink. I removed the middle link. Definitely MUCH faster!

      I say "nice" too MD! I like that one-link swivel - it does appear faster.
      I found that the standard EverLast master link is a #60, and I'm using that in my U-bolt base instead of the "U"-bolt. Fits perfectly and is quiet.
      Anyway - good hitting and thanks for posting.

            Thanks man and you're right, it's a two car garage and I practically have it filled! I just picked up springs from Lowe's so I can hang my heavy bag in the corner from the rafters and i put a pullup bar across the rafters. Yeah, space is good!

            Thanks Punchdrummer. The chainlink is so much faster now that I removed the middle link. Got the idea from this guy, Steve Ciaramello on YouTube . I have an Everlast Ubolt and may have to try that with the master link.. Thanks again

              Yeah... it sucks getting old. I've been noticing an unusual pain in the left knee...had a run yesterday and can barely walk on it today. Aleve is usually the answer, I'm just hoping it a muscle thing and NOT a joint thing!
