2/3rds...

the wall is around 9.5' to 10' high and spans the width of the double garage.
this size of construction will do all you need.















filling up the garage...

filling the corner with over hanging steps for full pump,
mind your head on the beam though. over hanging steped corner, double layered at the top for strength, and makes a good shoe rack...




















unable to build right up into the corner as there was a half mended leak, so i battered on regardless...

wall pictures from birth...

from conception to construction...winter 2006/07, 3D models made with google sketchup
great for playing around with shapes in restricted spaces...





































fixing the frame to the brick with a combination of cemented screws and bolts right through, once the frame is on, the rest is fairly quick, and as the build develops so does the skills and design...

welcome to climbfest

this blog is to show the progress of some of my pastimes.
there is the climbing/bouldering wall in my garage, good for relaxing or not.

my working day which involves design and graphics.

and then there is the part time job with splash white water rafting,

all will be revealed,

and hopefully will make some good viewing....

cheers
