Cleto Reyes makes a bladder that has both a bottom valve and a top one. However I would wonder if it would be able to fill a 10x12 bag without a catastrophic failure.

I've got it all disassembled now. I'm going to refinish the oak supports. I got some bladders in today from Ringside. This old bag is one that is just going to have to be a display bag filled with stuffing. The other large one I got that was new old stock from the New York Board of Education is just as large and even heavier. I did put a bladder in it and tried to hit with it. Egads, what a moose. Not really alot of fun to work with but very interesting anyway.

Another Old Platform
Just picked this old rig up on Ebay for $60 with shipping. Almost same type of swivel and metal loop, but with metal support and hanging arm vice wood. My 92 yr old dad boxed when he was in the navy during WWII and Korea. His face lights up when we go through his old boxing photo album. Gonna set this up in the garage, and hopefully get him to take a swing or two at it. Trying to keep him physically and mentally active.
During my days as a Jarhead, I saw many an old picture of the old military gyms. Most of these are hanging on the walls inside brand new fancy gyms on the base. There are lots of ring platforms with the metal and wooden frames in the old pictures. Even saw some pictures of some shipboard.Last edited by BigDogDaddyD; 02-14-2019, 10:28 AM.
