Climbing wall (single panel)
Step
1. Drill holes in plywood panel Although quite usable, this single
panel design is a little cramped. The braces get in the way of
some climbing movements and you must be careful to avoid hitting
them when you fall. Also don't get too wild at the top--you could
tip it over sideways. A more stable design would use two panels
mounted side by side to create an 8'x8' climbing surface. An even
better, but more complicated, design would be to separate the
braces from the panel by up to 3' on each side.
