I need to add in a few more higher for myself & in between some of my holds for the kids as I might have some coming up from rugby training to get some extra strength work done as their a bit on the little side. Should be good for their confidence as well.

Banged some more holds in today.

Coming along a treat. Need to get some smaller bolts to get the rest of the holds in. Thinking of swapping a few around to mix it up a little.

Kids hate me with the new ones. Got some corkers in there now :lol:

Very cool. I used the link you gave me and ordered some samples. Glad they like it, but I thought you were thinking of moving. Not sure if climbing grips increase home value or not :mrgreen:

Shouldn't take long to get to you. Mine didn't. Good quality.

I'm quite sure I could convince any potential buyers the wall would be an asset & is all the rage with those in the know :lol:

Thumbs up on that one. You know you set the wheels turning in his head. This should be interesting.

Great picture Scott. Lots of eye rolling from the wife :lol: Mate gave me an idea yesterday but that's more for the backyard if I can find a way of doing it.
