I remember when they first started coming out, a lot of you were able to modify them to make the ring posts higher, effectively making the ring ropes and turnbuckles to the right height... can anyone share how you did that? I searched but can't find the posts that discussed this. Thanks guys.

I didn’t do it but I think some people bought two and modded them together.
The cheaper option i seem to recall was people putting knee pad/leg sleeves in to bring the post up higher?
Someone with the ring will hopefully fill in the blanks.

I was just looking into this last night and it looked like people were using the leg sleeve knee pads to raise the ring posts to make them higher. Not sure how sturdy it is since I don’t have that ring yet, but I’m sure members in here could let us know.

By knee pads/leg sleeves, what exactly do you mean? Like an actual woman's nylon torn up and inserted into each post hole? Or like a figure knee pads from the Jakks Pacific days?

Lol that was me originally. I don’t have the reference pics handy at the moment, but yes You need to do two things: combine two rings parts Bs & Cs to eliminate the fixed ring post and then you can use leg sleeves from the Mattel figures ( long knee pads) to prop the posts up. It works really well unless your fling your figures around.
