That looks awesome. Wish I had the space to build something like that to train on.

nice! its especially reassuring these days to discover an austrian cellar that doesn't have anyone locked up inside.

[Jaspersharpe]

Ouch.

[neil h]

Well the weather is to hot to climb, i have a little injury so I decided to upgrade the maisonbleau woody, the original woody is still there, but just built this





This is how it fits into the original wall, sorry houdini for ripping out al you hard work




Its not finished so watch this space

[Houdini]

Ah!  It cost nowt!  Forget it!   

Though as a tippy / edgy / nastier climber I approve. 



Looks good, see you in February 09.

  Neil h.
    Just love the Maisonbleau Woody. Looks fun.
 
  Houdini.
    Did you get your plans for the moon wall.?

 Reason for my post.
    Building a woody in my garden for myself and 2 sons. Here are the rough dimensions.

  wall.   8x12. 35 - 45 deg adjustable.
  roof .  8x4.  8 - 9 foot off ground.
  top out finish. 8x2 - 8x4  not decided yet.
  not sure about kicker.
     Main wall is based on the moon wall plans. Just asking what you would suggest as to
   how many holds and what mix you would recomend. have put 300 t-nuts in so plenty
   of space and scope.

[philo]

i guess for training purposes you want something symetrical so you train each side the same.
im sure some people here will have the correct input as to training methods and which type holds are the best etc
but i dont think you can go wrong with a couple of wooden holds carved to what you want really!

[neil h]

it took us about 2 months to set up the board properly, best thing is to just randomly put holds on, fill every tnut space. mixture of every type of hold, then just start tweaking. move holds turn holds. once you are happy, place all your foot jibs, jobs a goog un, 2 months later strong as an ox

good luck

2 months later strong as an ox

If only!

 Hi all.
  Been away for the last week, keeping eye on posts on laptop. 
  
  Returned home to find timber trashed, shed open, power tools gone.  Spare climbing gear gone.
  Have to start over again any body know of a good place to aquire 300 T'nuts without paying large amount of postage.
  Still got all my holds so some luck there.

you have my sympathy.

suprised they left the holds though.

[redline]

 Still in the box's, in my front room as Luck would have it, not the only shed that's been done in the area.
  Have crime number now just need to talk to insurance, should be ok.

[Munkii]

good luck with the insurance.

my family never has much luck with them.

Thinking about putting a small training wall into the garage, but space is limited. The back wall is 2.28m high x 1.6 m wide. There is a roof beam that sits back from the vertical at 0.84m. Some trig calcs give me a 20 degrees from vertical excluding the kickboard if I support the board off the beam, which seems logical and easy enough to do. Does this sound big enough to bother? And how does the angle sound? Is it worth putting a kickboard in?

Also have the option of putting a wall all the way down one side, which would give me a length of approx 10m, but limited to an angle of about 5 -10 degrees max, as would still like to get a car in. Is it worth doing as well?

Your thoughts please. Thanks.

[Munkii]

i would do both if i could, make the most of what you have.

[Dr T]

at 20 deg I won't bother with a kick board - ome dirty sloppy crips would make for good pulling otherwise sounds like you could set up a stamina garage....

[Jaspersharpe]

Maybe add a few bloods for balance though.

[SA Chris]

stamina garage....

Mmm stamina. I remember that. Vaguely. Cheers for advice.

If I put up the 10 deg board I wont be able to get round the back of it at all, is this a problem? T Nuts often seem to cause problems on friend's walls.

[dave]

if you take care to hammer in the t-nuts straight and don't just ram bolts in hard from the front you won't have problems. people only generally get t-huts fall out the back when theres a nut not seated in square, then shove a bolt in, it can't find the threads and they're too heavy handed and push it out the back. i never had any come out the back, and most wer hammered in by JR! so i wouldn't fret.

[account_inactive]

If the worst comes to the worst you can get z-nuts you put in from the front, but as Dave said there rarely come out
