I plan drill this into an outdoor brick wall(my house). Do you think the impact of hitting an 80 pound bag will crack the brick or cause issues?

I installed it to the 2"x 4" in my garage and I use a 100 lb bag and I get s little vibration , so bolts inside of brick might widen the holes due to vibration.

Not sure. Mine is drilled into concrete and the bag is about 150. Its been a year, I keep the bag hanging and its still solid as stone. Wish I could help more.

Mine is drilled into the basement wall with heavy concrete anchors. I have a 100 lb bag and don't have any problems

I love this vice. However I use it as a soldering station, and I wouldn't use it for anything that absorbs impact. I would expect that big ball socket to loosen up after a couple if blows.

I have not hit anything with it but I doubt it would break with a good square hit. Only way to really know is to try.

Both myself and my boyfriend go at the bag pretty hard, with and without gloves. The only issue we have is that it makes a certain noise when it's gone beyond its limit. But as far as stability we've had zero problems. I would recommend filling it with sand over water, but both work

Not too heavy to use, but it sure would be a workout. I've found that raising it in the air then striking down & prying it side to side worked best. I made the strikes in a square pattern then used a traditional post hole digger to remove the broken up soil. I'm 66 and 5'7'. Still a workout, but a short rest between cycles & persistence works. Still better & faster than the traditional post hole digger alone. Good Luck

You will need a masonry bit for your drill to drill into the bricks and then you can use the supplied plastic anchors along with the offsets to mount the numbers. They should look terrific mounted on a brick wall.

Well, I haven't swung it at anything yet but this isn't one of those finely crafted high carbon steel I think. I guess if you swing it hard enough at something, it will probably shatter into 2 or crack or dent. This is mainly a wall decoration.

I have only used this with my cordless drill, but I see no reason it couldnt be used with an impact. It seems to be sturdy enough, and I have had no problems with it thus far.

I would say yes. I've never tried bricks but this drill has some guts. I'm an auto mechanic and I've never had to use a corded drill to finish a job I started with this drill. Very happy with it.

I am pretty sure that the weight of soil and water would cause the sides of this box to bow outward and probably lead to it breaking. You would have to put a Hughes amount of soil in this. You would not be able to move it once itis in place. I am sure you are far better off coming up with a different solution.

Absolutely,, play ground sand which I seem to recall one bag is 40lbs. I combined sand and several bricks which may have totaled a bit under the recommended weight ? I think they recommend 80lbs..so I would encourage using at least the minimal recommended wght to minimize issues. I mean once it's together you're not gonna want to take it apart. I have had NO PROBLEM and I am very satisfied with this product.

I actually did that project a few months ago with this set. I had no problems anchoring drywall inyo studs. Personally, I'd use the impact driver but the other drill works fine.

Great Question! Im not sure thou. If it isn't being hit directly it may work out just fine. My suggestion try one piece and see how it holds up for awhile before buying enough to line it all.

As long as you mount it to something secure, it works great. They just don't want someone to be able to smash the unit off the wall, so brick, concrete block, metal studs are all great. Wood, siding - not so good. The unit will probably survive but your wall wouldn't.

I am new at this too, so don´t worry...Its perfect for that, I bought the ¨Everlast Double End Striking Bag¨ and its perfect for avoiding drilling the floor, i filled it with water and works great, you can also try sand. Hope the information helps, enjoy and stay active!

I have had mine for a while its been deployed with me several times and been thrown in my Ruck sack and dropped and kicked around and never had an issue. So unless you try to break it you should be ok

I put a whole 50 pound bag of dry beans in one to keep it waterproof and it didnt have a problem with strength at all. It did have a big problem being waterproof (there are nickle size holes in the bottom corners).
