Hi, thought some people might be interested in some homemade holds. My process has come a long way and sometimes changes depending on the rock but generally…
Find a rock with interesting feature that won’t just be a pinch.
Cut the back flat with a tile saw or lapidary saw.
Drill various holes using diamond coated hole saw drill bit.
Flatten the recess holes with cylinder grinding stones.
Glue in washers.
Glue on 3mm rubber backing.

It was beeping five times and then stopping. Upon inspection, this didn’t look completely right to me inside.
Some exposed wiring and the white wire sheeth looked darkened(burned). Though that doesn’t show in the picture as it was further left on the wire behind stuff.
Is this fucked up or good? Electrician has snubbed them twice. Perhaps cause they think it’s too small a job.
Another week or 2 till we enter prime berry picking season!

Started messing around with making my own climbing holds made out of rock. It’s a bit more difficult that I thought, particularly because every hold I make wants to be a pinch if not cut correctly. I also if the wall they are being attached to aren’t perfectly flat then tightening the holds down will often lead to a break. Have been trying to get around that by adding a soft rubber backing to the holds. Will happily take any feedback or advice if you have any.
