Ok, this is really bothering me. Does anyone know of a freestanding stand for a Double End Bag? I thought I saw a thread that talked about this before but I couldnt find it again. Could one just buy a heavy bag stand and connect the top bungie to that and then attatch the other end to a weight on the floor? Any help would be appreciated.

Field,
What I did was screw an "eye" hook into the rafter of my garage ceiling, then I got a small bin, filled it with sand and screwed the floor mounting bracket into the top. Once I'm done with my workout, I simply unhook it and drape it over my chinup bar, so it's out of the way. I did this as I don't have any weights and the DEB floor stabalizer that Everlast makes is not the best.

MacGyver Build Methods
I made my Double End Bag and attachments out of things i found lying around the house.
I "borrowed" one of my 4 year old daughter's toy bouncy balls for the bag itself. (i think she still wants the ball back, even though i've got her several to replace it since then) HaHa. I then wrapped the ball in a fine net. Tied Loops at both ends of the net. Then i covered it all with DUCT TAPE. gotta love duct tape.
I braided some thick rubber bands together for the upper, and lower cords.
For the floor anchor i used one of my wife's old *******s. (If you have a wife, or a mother, there are *******s around that they don't use any more.) I then went into the backyard and found a big stone i could stuff into the bag, and still get the bag closed.
Bada Bing!
I have used This DEB for a few years now, and it still works like a charm.
It has lost a bit of air. If i were to make another one i would leave the air valve for the ball clear of tape and position it near the bottom or top of the bag for easy access.
I used this same MacGyver type build method for my Bladder bag. It was just a bunch of junk lying around the house that i saw every day.
Always have plenty of Duct Tape.
