After i looked speed bag platform prices and quality in Finland, i decided to make my own. i already had some wood my own so i only have to buy metal what im going to weld into triangle looking support frame. I actualy searched for ideas of homemade platform, and got into this forum, no regret, you guys have made awesome platforms your own and someones even instructions
So i started whit designin my board whit 3D program. ( i really hope these images work
)

after thinking about shapes i decided to go circle shaped platform.
like i said i had some playwood?(i guess) and someother wood that i dont know in english, but it was thick and had nice granit like look on surface. Here i drawed cutting line whit marker (i used 60cm wide table to draw it
)

Here i have cutted it circle whit electric using saw. I repeated proces whit playwood.

Now i attached boards together using erikepeer glue beetween boards and screwed together, making sure i dont brake rebound surface. i also painted side of the platform whit erikeeper/ black paint mixture to make sure its moisture proof beetween boards.

after painting i let it dry over night. I painted the top wood (not the granit surface one) whit the black spray paint. its impregnated wood (yes i googled it finally
) so it doesent need my erikeeper/paint mix.
