    Thanks, Kevin! I guess I'm a full-fledged speed bag addict. I'm making my own gear!

    Thanks so much, Ryan. And I agree about two heads being better than one! Thanks for the offer to help with any problems. It's appreciated. I've never done anything like this – and it's a little nerve-wracking...

    I'm excited that so many members are willing to take the plunge and try it out. Hopefully, they'll be a success. There's always room for something new in the speed bagger's world.

      I dig that swiv with the light. That's Punch Drumming Video worthy. Could get some some small led lights to make sure that the speed bag is dimly lit, and let that swivel take the stage do it's thang.

      Ms D. How is Raul bending his S-Hooks? is he just using a hammer? hammer and heat?

      Which one of these S-Hooks was featured in the motion picture "I Know What Your Swivel Did Last Summer"?

            Somebody needs to photoshop that movie poster into an ad for Speedbag 2012. Put a more recognizable swivel silhouette, and something like "I Know What I'm Doing This Summer"

                          Funny stuff!

                          Pretty darned funny, ebo. You never let us down with your interesting take on things.

                          To answer your question about the s-hooks, I'm afraid I haven't been in the garage when he's working on them. But, I think it involves a vice... and some pliers, a paper clip, and some duct tape.

                          I do know that he is using 3/16" rolled steel. It's a smaller gauge than the standard hooks that Everlast uses. The S-hook, when finished measures 1-1/4"-1-1/2" in length (from inside the top loop of the S to the top of the bottom of the S). The I-bolt hole is smaller, and is tucked deeper into the brass ball, so it actually shortens the distance of the hang of the bag. Makes it go really f-a-s-t.

                          I have been getting some requests for pictures, so I have finally posted some pictures of the swivel on my Profile page: http://www.speedbagforum.com/forums/...hp?albumid=100

                          I'll try to get a few more shots posted in the next day or so.

                          In the meantime, thanks to all you great baggers who have taken the plunge, or should I say, taken "one step for a bagger, but one giant step for baggers of all kind."

                          This photo on Wikipedia says that Buzz Aldrin is unpacking experiments from the spacecraft, but what we can't see is the speed bag that he's punching on, but is blocked from view by his big space suit...

                            I sent you a PM and cant wait to hear back. I love the idea of a ball hook swivel being quiet! Thanks.
