How To Make a Punching Bag Using Old Tires

DIY Tire Punching Bag

If you like training outdoors and want a punching bag that you could leave out and it’s not going to deteriorate in the weather, then make yourself one of these. I made this one from old tires that I got for free from a tire shop. Most tire shops will be happy to donate some old tires if you tell them they will be used to make a punching bag. The steps below give you a basic overview of how to make one yourself. For more detailed instructions check out my Fighter DIY eBook.

5-Step Instructions on How To Make an Outdoor Punching Bag Using Old Tires:

  1. Get 6 old tires by visiting your local tire shop and asking them to donate 6 old tires. Tell them it’s for a punching bag and they will be happy to let you have them for free.
  2. Buy two PVC pipes the length of your stack of tires.
  3. Drill holes on either side of each tire, making sure all the holes line up, so you can thread your PVC pipes through the holes, thus bracing the tires together.
  4. Use rope or straps to strap the tires together and stop them from coming apart.
  5. Attach a carabina to the top of each strap or rope for hanging your tire punching bag.
Good luck making it and hope you enjoy! If you have any questions feel free to ask them in the comments below.

Intro Make your own Cobra Punching Bag at home that is faster than some of the top brands on the market at just a fraction of the cost. To make it super easy I designed and produced a custom spring specifically for this purpose. I made it so that you can simply screw it onto a 3/4 inch galvanised steel pipe. If you have any questions please put them in the comments below and I'll respond as soon as I can. Also please share your thoughts and experience with others here if you make one. Items You'll Need: Kewlus Spring (KS9) - purchase here:  https://kewlus.com/products/kewlus-spring-v1 Base pipe: galvanised  3/4 inch pipe  (1.05 inches outer diameter) the length of roughly half your height. I used a 3 foot long pipe for my height (I'm 6ft tall). The 3/4 inch pipe has an outer diameter that is 1.05 inches. The spring is designed to fit perfectly onto this pipe. You can also combine sections of pipe using a coupling , for example 2ft section and 1ft section to allow reduction

How To Make a Free-Standing Punching Bag

10-Step Instructions: Get 13 pool noodles (for a 6 foot tall punching bag), a roll of cheap packing tape and a roll of cheap cling wrap (or two). For your pole get a one inch wide PVC pipe - roughly 6 foot long. For your platform get an MDF (particle) board at least 2 foot wide and 1/2 inch thick. Alternatively if you don't want to make the base, you can simply use an umbrella base such as this one from Amazon:  https://amzn.to/3nY3J19 . For mounting your pole, get a one inch galvanised steel pipe roughly one foot long and a flange to mount it. You'll also need 4 thick, short screws to fix the flange onto your board - these are ideal: https://amzn.to/3gCO82H . Note, if you want to make your punching bag more rigid, use a two foot galvanised pipe. For fixing your PVC pipe onto your galvanised pipe you will also need a one inch hose clamp. Setup your platform and pole: screw the flange onto one end of your board; insert the galvanised pipe into one end of the PVC pipe and lock
