Platform fell off wall

[Speedbag]

Thanks SBSH! I was devastated. I never got hurt mate. It was all kind of in slow motion. The lower fixings held and I kind of caught the sand bag with my head. .....Man I hate DIY!

Your lucky it didn't cause brain damage because it Looks like it knocked all your hair off

LMAO!!

Too funny -- I guess I had one land on me at some point, too!

Reminds me of what my best friend always used to say as he was starting to go bald: "Hey, I've noticed there are lots of guys that look good with no hair... lately!"

Yeah, I get a kick out of all the young guys shaving their heads for whatever reason, and the old guys buying rogaine to grow it all back. I guess I'm lucky because I'm pushing 60 and still have every hair I was born with. I got two decent genes from my parents: Rhythm and Hair.

Hey AK, you say the funniest things. Sam say's, I must have had a knock on the head when I was younger, or did my mother drop me? She says the kids are crazy and take after me!

Thanks TJ, I'm all up and bagging away. Even the kids have been under the platform. They're going through their speed bagging phase again.

With Griffin's expertise advice, I used epoxy and the longest shield bolts I could get my hands on. It's solid as a rock!

Thanks again to you all for your ideas.

Even tho I was a classically trained musician (yeah there's another bit of my past exposed) I prefer the Chuck Jones version......

Classically trained musician? fascinating. Does that mean voice or instrument? My dark past is I love Classical and Opera. It is also fun stuff for Punch Drumming, but many classical songs have a lot of speed changes.

I actually went to school to become a high school band director. Long story short, it didn't work out, for a couple of reasons too complicated to go into here.

Well good on ya for that dream. Long live the High School Band Directors. Those were two men (Jr. High director, then HS Band Director) that certainly changed my life. It breaks my heart to see Music and band eliminated from Middle and High School curricula.
