I was going to skip through majority of the video so I could just get some ideas for when I build my own speed bag platform. I ended up watching the entire video cause this guy was hilarious to watch. It's like that teacher everybody showed up to class for, even if they hated the subject. Not to mention the platform turned out looking really good. Needless to say, subscribed!!
Excellent videos. I had an issue with the speedbag shaking the house, being too loud in the house, and pissing off my wife when it was attached to the house. About 17 years ago I bought a free standing dual station (Speedbag and heavy bag) and put it out on the deck but it was too loud so it ended up in the yard. The issue with keeping it out on the yard is that the stand would rust the backboard would rot and warp. I could deal with the rust but trying to hit a speedbag with a warped backboard pissed me off. I did something similar to what you did but instead of wood I glued together a few pieces of Synboard (a.k.a. PVC board). I had the guy at the Lowes Hardware store cut the pieces to size for me (I left them square), I took them home and glued them together, and bolted them to the stand with log bolts. It has been outside a few years now and there has been no rotting or warping and the bag rebounds off it very nicely. Probably the best backboard I ever had.
Same here. I bought a speed bag stand and it's a piece of shit. Whole thing fucken shakes. Even worst then the wall mounted platforms. The thickness really absorbs it.
FYI...those little numbers at the base of your chuck represent torque values for the clutch drive. Most drills have at least two settings, one being the drill function, which is a straight connection between the motor (via reduction) and chuck, and the other being "screw", which engages the clutch function, "slipping" according to the number selected.. Simply select a low number to drive your screws in to avoid over tightening...no need for going "slow with just bursts". Constantly getting on and off the trigger will shorten the life of your drill.
I would try it while it was still square. Maybe the extra mass would make the bag faster??? Use a 6' ladder to rest the platform on and add spacers to raise it up so you could do it with one person for the attachment.
Nice work , very informative. The only thing (not totally important) you usually get a super-cheap throw away brush to spread the glue evenly across the surface.
great job, I would have erased the pencil lines before staining. Also you could have set the counter sink first then use the smaller drill bit to run it through.
@@AhmedShraim hello im 17, and i want to build one,what is the complete measurement of the plywood that you used and how to create a cut of correct round platform ?
Very well done! I kindly ask you to answer me two questions. Do that additional wooden layers help to reduce the noise caused by the speedbag in use? The second question is about the swivel. I have a swivel with a kind of "chain-parts" which seems to be quite loud. Is the title-swivel you recommend noticeably quieter than the "chain-swivel"? Thanks for all your tutorials! They are great! Greetings from Berlin, Germany
Thank you foe your kind words. More layers will make the platform less noisy but won’t make it quite. The bag will still make plenty of noise. But vibration is the real enemy. The more vibration in the platform the louder it will be. The swivel you have could become less noisy if you oil it in all the moving parts. Hope this helps mein fruend
Thanks for replying Mr. Shraim. I bought a new swivel which looks like the ones you are using and a smaller speedbag than the one I used before. That helps a lot. Now the noise is lower and my neighbours are happy. Wish you a happy new year. Hopefully it will be better than 2020 and corona is being killed.
Morning, I'm from Brazil and I really enjoyed your work and this video. Could you ask me a question? What wood do you use to make the platform? Which MDF did you use? formica? Thank you and keep producing these great content.
Ummm you know lowes sells boards already cut to size for 23 plus inches that you can glue together and make i already did and it was a ONE man job. Jus sayin.
The boards they sell are pine - softer. And, they usually have a radius edge (I.e., the edge is rounded over). The radius edge makes the edge of the platform have gaps between the layers. If you don’t want the weird gaps you’ll either have to buy non-radius edge edges or do a ton of sanding. clean up the edge you will spend a ton of time sanding.
Great video. I was wondering if you attached that platformto your existing valor platform? If so did you glue them together then bolted them or are they only bolted together?
I recessed them so they don’t look Nyerere with the bag.

hey @Shraims Academy , what length and size are those bolts? i am from Singapore can’t seem to find long bolts in singapore. please help, appreciate it
Thank you. Both swivels are similar in dominations. The holes lined up. But don’t know if valor changed their design in recent years. When did you get yours?
Great job, (PL500 is a much stronger adhesive, although a bit messy.) I have a question though, what brand brackets are you using to mount this to the wall? Because no way in hell are my brackets going to be able to hold up that weight even before we start pounding the bag. Thank you for all of your videos..
Thank you for the feed back. I used the frame that came with the original speed bag platform by Valors’s athletics. It is extremely sturdy and can handle heavy weight.
Hi, thanks for your videos. I would like to create a speed bag platform identical to the Valor one you use in your gym. I would like to know what is the thickness of the two smooth bars and their height. Another question: do you think there are bearings in the two black cylinders that run on the two bars? Or are they just simple tubes? I hope I was clear in everything! :) Thank you, good job
Not sure I am giving the correct info but based on what I understood from your questions the smooth bars are 22 inches long and about 1/2 thick. Also I don't think there is any bearings in the black tubes just rubber inserts with grease to ease friction. Hope this helps you with your project.
As a wood worker and a speed bag enthusiast, I’m thinking… why not leave the wood in square form. It will save tons of time not having to cut and sand, plus it will be much heavier as your not reducing wood/weight. Of course if you don’t have room for a square platform then I understand making it round, but since there isn’t any laws of physics saying a platform needs to be round… why not make it square? I’m about to build a new setup, and have been pondering the question of round vs square….
5x8?? No way. The bigger the bag the easier for beginners man. A 7x10 or 8x11 is the best to start off. Its easier to get your rhythm down. Do not buy a 5x8 yet bro.
24 in diameter platform is a common size so any speed bag should be fine. Where size makes a difference depends on what your skill level is. Its easier to learn on a larger size speed bag than a smaller size speed bag. I have two different size Cleto Reyes speed bags, small and x-small. The x-small requires more speed, better timing and accuracy than my small size. If you are new to speed bags then I would suggest the medium size Cleto Reyes. I am only using Cleto Reyes as an example since that is all I have, you can use cheaper brands and be fine.

Your a goddamn genius. How perfect man
With those combination stands you pretty much have to put 30lbs of sandbags on the top of the platform to keep it from shaking.
Great job got the circles cut will glue together and mount it. Thanks for the video.
Really dig the way all your bags (heavy, double ended, and speed) are all setup. Thinking of using this approach in my basement, thank you.
That’s what I call a diy project. Thank you for taking the time and making the vid enjoyable. 5 stars !!!!

Lol

Dude i think you did a fine job thanks for the info and your attitude towards how you did your project was cool man positive vibes god bless
Incredible video
I buy best swivel and best bag. Thanks to you I make platform, but I must hurry Christmas is almost here.
Best of luck
Thank you so much I am ready to have a go at making a speed ball platform now
Thx Brutha - that was awesome. I have the Xmark platform, I might add this for extra thickness.
My pleasure always. Thicker platform will reduce noise and speed up the bag.
I used a cutoff piece of kitchen top from B&Q works well
Great tutorial thanks for sharing!!
Awesome video, thanks for sharing 😎😎😎😎👍🏾👊🏾
Great stuff! Thank you!
Great job coach! Thank you
Thank you
Very informative and helpful video

what type of board is it? you recommend any specific wood?

that was good watch you make the platform magic
If you lived in my area I would love to take lessons from you. Sadly I’m on the west coast. I’ve learned so much from your videos. Thank you kind sir!
Thank you for your kind words. Perhaps you should move to NJ even though our weather is pretty terrible compared to you the West coast.
Shraims academy what size of screws did you use? Will this work for the everlast platform? Thanks
@@legnabeats3726 You will have to measure your platform and decide on the screw lengths my man. Every platform is different.
Is the original platform painted wood or plastic?
Nice job, I would have finished it off with a few coats of polyurethane varnish for protection and it would then look really great.

Hey there, thank you for your compliment. I used plywood layers from Home Depot and the bottom layer is covered in Formica.
Ummm you know lowes sells boards already cut to size for 23 plus inches that you can glue together and make i already did and it was a ONE man job. Jus sayin.

Great video. I was wondering if you attached that platformto your existing valor platform? If so did you glue them together then bolted them or are they only bolted together?
I bolted the ones I built to the existing Valor Platform. Didn't need to glue them together and they perform flawlessly.
Im just wondering if you did drill the holes so the bag wouldnt reach them.I do realize you recessed the holes though.
I recessed them so they don’t look Nyerere with the bag.
hey @Shraims Academy , what length and size are those bolts? i am from Singapore can’t seem to find long bolts in singapore. please help, appreciate it
Great Videos. How did you install the Title Boxing Lightening Swivel to the Valor black PLATFORM?
Thank you. Both swivels are similar in dominations. The holes lined up. But don’t know if valor changed their design in recent years. When did you get yours?
Why not just keep it square, adds weight? I made mine same but couldn't be asked to round it. Thanks for your tips.
Great job, (PL500 is a much stronger adhesive, although a bit messy.) I have a question though, what brand brackets are you using to mount this to the wall?

Use bolts and nuts with washers
What kind of wood is it? treated? Or not treated ???

thank you
Guys i think he's not a carpenter
Would using only pine wood make a difference?
I don’t see why not.
Hey coach, i heard a rumor you were a carpenter. Is that true? LOL
lol. Wish I had the patience to learn such an awesome trade.
@@AhmedShraim miss your videos. I learned a lot in my speed bag training because of you and I thank you for that.
@@Machtimus it has been my pleasure. Will make a come back at some point for sure. But super busy with the gym and competition in the moment.
@@AhmedShraim I'm glad to hear that. I seriously and whole heartedly wish you nothing but luck and great success in 2024 and beyond
@@Machtimus thank you my good man. I appreciate your support.
Hello great video. I have a everlast dual station, the station will handle the weight ok or i need a less heavy piece of wood?
I am not sure which system you have. send me a photo of it and I can try to help you figure that out.
Why do you
Need to make a thicker platform if you already have one on there?
Ruben Vargas thicker platform will have less vibration which means the bag swings faster.

Excellent points and I totally agree. It all depends on the space each person have.
@@AhmedShraim thx for ur reply as I wanted someone's opinion. Happy Boxing!!!
Shraims academy , which size of speed bag do you recommend for beginners.
www.titleboxing.com/punching-bags/title-boxing-super-speed-bags the mustard colored one "5 x 8"
5x8?? No way. The bigger the bag the easier for beginners man. A 7x10 or 8x11 is the best to start off. Its easier to get your rhythm down. Do not buy a 5x8 yet bro.
What size are the bolts that you used?
Where can you buy just the oak or can you not?
Home Depot if you live in the US.
What size bag would you recommend putting on a 24in diameter platform?
24 in diameter platform is a common size so any speed bag should be fine. Where size makes a difference depends on what your skill level is. Its easier to learn on a larger size speed bag than a smaller size speed bag. I have two different size Cleto Reyes speed bags, small and x-small.

I am only using Cleto Reyes as an example since that is all I have, you can use cheaper brands and be fine.
Thank You!!!
What screws did you use for the swivel???
On my swivel I just use 1" pocket hole pan head screws.
Hey does CA 53 speedbag platform ship to Singapore country
No idea. I don’t sell them.
Is it a big deal if i didn't put the original layer of wood??
Ahmed Talaat not at all. I had similar set up for years and it worked fine. Perhaps not as fast as the current one, but will get the job done.
What is the original layer made of?
Ahmed Talaat Formica
Why plywood in the center?
No reason really.
WHAT SIZE IS THAT?
His 100% Arab trust me he sounds like my dad
Woodglut Blueprints has some very useful blueprints with all the details you need.
I would pay you top to make me one just like this and ship it out to me😂 that’s a serious offer btw, I know I would butcher this for sure lol
Sure I can ship to you the one I made in that video.
Shraims academy seriously? How can I get in contact with you to talk about it more?? Just have some questions?
Shraims academy what’s up coach, I hate to be annoying but just wondering about an update on how I can contact you to talk about this? lol
@@AhmedShraim r u able to make these coach im not skilled enough to make this
@@A.Guy2023 I am afraid I do not my friend. But I am sure any local carpenter would be able to make something like once you give him the dimensions.
I work with wood. I would recommend solid 2.5 inch maple..To much vibration with plywood.. Thanks for video...
2.5” thick maple would cost a fortune - $300. At that price, just buy a finished professional-grade platform and save yourself some work.
