Punching Bag Stand

For anyone that could help me...

I just recently bought a 100 pound everlast Olympic punching bag. I got chains and the equipment, but when I tried to install it onto a board on the top of my garage it seemed a little awkward. I then began lightly punching it, and when i gave it a little power, the whole top of the garage began to shake.

Obviously its not strong enough to support the bag.

Anyway, I was wondering if anyone had any ideas about making my own bag stand. I would just go buy one, but I cant really afford 100 dollars at the moment. I tried getting rope and wrapping it around the board but it did the same thing. Does anyone have any ideas for another spot where I could hang it, or a way that I can make my own?

I'm really pissed I cant use the bag right now. I'm training for a fight and would like to train at home but have been resorted to hit the gym back and forth.

All help is GREATLY apprieciated

i dont know much about this stuff, but making your own stand would be a pretty tough thing to do. i suggest looking on craigslist, theres always people selling stands on there for cheap. i bought my stand brand new from some guy on craigslist for $25 and a 100lb everlast bag for $30. send me a pm if you are in the orange county area.
