How To Make a Boxing Cobra Punching Bag Using the Kewlus Spring

Image
Intro Make your own Cobra Punching Bag at home that is faster than some of the top brands on the market at just a fraction of the cost. To make it super easy I designed and produced a custom spring specifically for this purpose. I made it so that you can simply screw it onto a 3/4 inch galvanised steel pipe. If you have any questions please put them in the comments below and I'll respond as soon as I can. Also please share your thoughts and experience with others here if you make one. Items You'll Need: Kewlus Spring (KS9) - purchase here:  https://kewlus.com/products/kewlus-spring-v1 Base pipe: galvanised  3/4 inch pipe  (1.05 inches outer diameter) the length of roughly half your height. I used a 3 foot long pipe for my height (I'm 6ft tall). The 3/4 inch pipe has an outer diameter that is 1.05 inches. The spring is designed to fit perfectly onto this pipe. You can also combine sections of pipe using a coupling , for example 2ft section and 1ft section to allow re...

How To Make a Free-Standing Punching Bag

Image
10-Step Instructions: Get 13 pool noodles (for a 6 foot tall punching bag), a roll of cheap packing tape and a roll of cheap cling wrap (or two). For your pole get a one inch wide PVC pipe - roughly 6 foot long. For your platform get an MDF (particle) board at least 2 foot wide and 1/2 inch thick. Alternatively if you don't want to make the base, you can simply use an umbrella base such as this one from Amazon:  https://amzn.to/3nY3J19 . For mounting your pole, get a one inch galvanised steel pipe roughly one foot long and a flange to mount it. You'll also need 4 thick, short screws to fix the flange onto your board - these are ideal: https://amzn.to/3gCO82H . Note, if you want to make your punching bag more rigid, use a two foot galvanised pipe. For fixing your PVC pipe onto your galvanised pipe you will also need a one inch hose clamp. Setup your platform and pole: screw the flange onto one end of your board; insert the galvanised pipe into one end of the PVC pipe and lock ...

AmazonUS:  https://amzn.to/304M8eJ For the base get a 2 foot wide MDF or "particle" board.

AmazonUS:  https://amzn.to/2XopfRy For the base you'll need a short 1/2 inch galvanised steel pipe.

How To Make a Punching Bag Stand

Image
One of my most loved projects is what I call the Total Stand , which is a punching bag stand that also doubles as a pull-up station or suspension training platform. The video below I take you through a basic overview of how to make one yourself. Here are the steps... 5-Step Instructions for How To Make a Punching Bag Stand: Connect two 4x2 wooden beams (each roughly twice your height) at about 4/5 of their length with an eye bolt. Drill a hole at the top of each beam and connect the tops of the beams with rope as pictured. Using rope connected to the tops and the cross point of the beams bring the whole structure up to around 70 degree upright angle. Tie off the ropes holding up the structure at an anchor point, such as a base of a solid tree. Hang your punching bag from the cross point of the two beams. Good luck making it and hope you enjoy! If you have any questions feel free to ask them in the comments below. More Detailed Instructions: This project is one of ...

Drill holes on either side of each tire, making sure all the holes line up, so you can thread your PVC pipes through the holes, thus bracing the tires together. Use rope or straps to strap the tires toget...
