New Official ATOT Nef Thread II

What is Jesus's middle name?

Holy shit. I was 15 when I joined ATOT

 

[MotF Bane]

Measured joists at 7 1/4".

That increase, and the fact that the eyebolt mount should be about an inch shallower than the track system, means the top of the bag should be around 65" high. That means a five foot bag will just barely fit - unfortunately, they don't make five foot Thai bags.

Well maybe not ATOT but AT

 

[MotF Bane]

no one mentioned chopping your leg off at the knee, thus freeing up vertical space?

That's a rather unworkable solution.

NI!

And I'm looking for a Thai bag because they're more commonly packed with rags instead of sand, making them better for kicking.

 

[MotF Bane]

Unfortunately, the standard size for those is six feet, which doesn't work, unless I can shorten the entire mounting apparatus by 8".

 

[MotF Bane]

Perhaps a shorter spring with a higher k value.

 

[MotF Bane]

The long chains provide the bag a better ability to swing.
The spring provides a swing also, but with short chains, the swing picks up an unusual motion.
The spring cannot, obviously, be used without chains, as it must connect with four spread out connecting points.

Check out the retro computer thread. Good times! And no, Alfa, a TI-83 doesn't count.

84 + 7.25 = 91.25 inches.

They had electronics before a TI-83? 😕

It's 16 years old!

A couple rubber gaskets should slightly help with securing the hanger better.

91.25 inches... I want to get the total hanging assembly to top of bag to be not more than 17.25 inches.

 

[MotF Bane]

That would provide a 74" spacing, which would allow a 72" bag, and it would put the top of the bag just a little above my head, while allowing the tab to swing.

 

[MotF Bane]

Let's run some geometry for this one...

 

[MotF Bane]

I don't think I can solve this figure without knowing the exact height of the hanging pivot point.

 

[MotF Bane]

I have the angle of a non-existent triangle, but... I don't know what it applies to.
