Having a little bit of a dilemma about the design of a small board. I'm sure someone has asked this question before somewhere in the 57 pages of this thread.Height is the limiting factor as the garage roof is only 2.2m. I can temporarily lean a full sheet of ply at more than 45° and still get the nose of the car underneath it with the door shut so the space is fine. Sitting on the ground and looking up at the sheet does seem a bit small and limited but is this any different to the traditional Sheffield celler? A friend has suggested that it would be better given the limited height to create a cragx style board with a small roof to keep the knees in but if I can get away with keeping it simple then I would rather keep the surface flat. I'm really not sure so would be very grateful for suggestions from the woodie building experts on here. How steep is too steep as I'm not training for bouldering caves but a variety of angles on Peak Lime routes? By nature I am incredibly lazy and disinterested in training so just having hang boards and campus rungs won't suffice, I need to do moves to stay interested. Thanks.

even though it was some time ago, I don't recall you having weak fingers (!).

I'm definitely in the shadow stage but with some determination and a good board perhaps I can come back into the light.
.. if you'd like, you can borrow my dehumidifier for a few weeks and see how it fairs as an experiment? I run it for about a week every month in the house, the rest of the time it not on.
