So I was down in the basement last week with a friend who noticed this platform. The cheap discount store, bag wouldn't hold air. I found this forum through google and found the Turbo Speed Bag from Title recommended for begginers, so I bought it.
This rig is rom the 60's. I remember being in grade school when my uncle John, who was known to like his whiskey coming over and making it sing while telling some wild stories that my mom probably wouldn't approve of
You can see that the swivel (a replacement with three screw holes) is off center. Because of that, and so I can use different size bags, I will replace the steel ring with a board.
The swivel is just a ball and socket where the ball has a hole through which you string a piece of leather. Tie a knot in the leather where you want it and you can adjust it to whatever length that you want.
So what do y'all think of the swivel? It's better than I can hit at the moment but do you think that I'll be looking for something else once I get the board installed and get some practice in? I think this is a good design and think that I'll keep it.
Oh yeah, I've got gloves that are just as old.
