Hanging a heavy bag
Posted: Sun Dec 19, 2010 11:06 pm
Greetings,
This may sound silly, but I want to hang an Everlast heavy bag in my spare bedroom. It weighs 100 pounds. I am wondering if it is safe to attach it using a mount that attaches to the studs.
Here is the model I am specifically looking at:

I have the option of mounting it to an exterior wall, or inside, if there is a difference.
I could use 2x4's to spread the load over 4 studs if it would help.
I'm not sure how trailers are framed, and I don't think it would be an issue, but I want to make sure first.
Thanks for any input.
