When did you build your wall?
Just before lockdown started
How long did it take you to build?
3 weeks
Not including holds and padding, how much did it cost you to build?
£700
Did anything in particular inspire your wall design?
Symmetrical training boards
What was the most difficult aspect of the design and build?
The kick board because the floor of the building slopes down one way and the wall leans out slightly so I had to do a lot of packing and levelling.
What would you do differently?
I’d make it wider
What is your favorite aspect?
The adjustable angle means I can train strength one week and then do circuits and train endurance the next week
Any words of wisdom to aspiring homewallers?
Plan it out first
Do you have any connection to climbing brands or gyms?
No
