MAGNET FOR CLIMBING SHOES

Will this magnet change where I keep my climbing shoes? I test a magnet from amazon to see if it is strong enough to hold my chalk bag, and climbing shoes, to a climbing wall. The reason I want to use a magnet instead of a hook screwed into the wall is for simplicity and I would rather not have a random hook or eyebolt sticking out of the wall. This magnet isn't as strong as I hoped it would be...

    Hey man! Found you while looking for build plans/tips/ideas since I'll be building one within the next couple/few weeks. Happy you are taking the time for yourself - much needed I'm sure. I absolutely love the new design based on the sneak peek. Either way, I plan on buying your design on Etsy, but I think the new design will better suit my needs for the space. I'm wondering if I can/should hold out for the new design. Do you have a target release date?

    Nice! I upvoted the video. I feel like the quick link in the saddle isn't the best repair because the saddle is meant to just hold something statically, and then the zip stop rotating on the now-static quick link turns the quick link into a lever, which could cause the saddle to either loosen more over time, or bite more into the cable, and maybe both? I'd prefer to see something like a quicklink on the zip stop going to another quicklink, with a big saddle or something preventing the top quicklink from moving down the wire? I don't know, that was my initial thought while watching. Great work, though, I'm happy you it's improved from where it was!

    I've done designs for various projects before where two pieces of wood rub together while pivoting on a screw, and have had great success making a couple of HDPE washers to lubricate the joint. Works much better than just a fender washer. Just cut them from milk jug plastic (HDPE has the 2 in the recycling triangle on the bottom), using the washer as a pattern, and sandwich it between the plastic washers. Also, sizing the length of the bolt to allow for 2 nuts, the second one being a jam nut tight up against the first, keeps the nut from working its way off without having to use threadlocker glue. Plus, it lets you really dial in the tightness or looseness of the pivot joint to your liking, because the jam nut makes the screw tight however loose it is between the wood pieces. Great project, again!

  • @JusBidniss
    @JusBidniss Місяць тому

    Nice design! I'm a real fan of the way the top corners of the inner legs stop against the underneath side of the top piece. Limiting the spread of the legs with a stop is a much more elegant solution than the ropes or chains of other horses out there. And good job on the angled screws holding the top extra tight. Great folding sawhorses!

    Maybe it worked better when you did this, but adding sand as a texture in my paint for my wall at home was the worst mistake I made. It falls off, is VERY sharp and just not the move.

    • @climberdad

      That's a tough one to answer because there are so many factors and no one wants to be responsible for other people's work, including myself. Think about how much weight will be suspended from the trusses, how many trusses will it be spread out/tied into the system, what else is on the trusses and how the weight will be transferred to the ground. Hope that helps.

    ILD is the rating of a foam's firmness measured as follows. A 50 sq inch (8" diameter) round pressing surface is pressed into the foam until the foam defleccts 25% of its original thickness. example: a 4 inch pad gets deflected 1 inch. The force to maintain that 25% deflection is the ILD rating in pounds. The test is a little more involved but that's the key measure.

  • @undaware
    @undaware 2 місяці тому

    The specs say the 2" super max on top is 70lb ILD, which is harder than the 6" lux at 50lb ILD. Overall looks on the firm side. Very familiar with foambymail/foamfactory. Been using them for years.

    When it comes to keychains, Niteize makes several products with and without magnets that are really handy. As far as the magnet's rated strength is, the 80lbs (if it's real) is the vertical force needed to pull it apart. The force required to slide (lateral) the magnet is much much lower, which is why you are seeing the magnet falling off the climbing wall very easily. One concern carrying a strong magnet this close to you it that it has a chance to demagnetize your credit card strip if there is prolonged exposure. Feel free to correct me.

    Hey Climber Dad, awesome content! I'm starting to work on climbing projects and have some specific doubts about the angles between two walls. I think it's called "miter angles"... Do you specify those angles to the client, and if yes, how do you calculate them? I model my projects in Revit, but I tend to calculate those angles by hand since I haven't discovered yet how to get them right in the software... I also have a doubt about whether those angles are always cut to achieve a nice fit between two walls. I observed that when the angle between two walls is smaller than 180°, we don't necessarily need to cut the miter angle because the walls are supported by the structure. I think it would affect how you construct the wall and the finishes. Do you have an opinion about it? Anyways, thanks for these tips, i am a big fan!

    • @climberdad
      @climberdad 3 місяці тому

      2 types of joints you can do, mitered joint or a butt joint. Mitered joint is the nicest. You would dived the angle in half and put that angle on each side. For example, if you have an angle that is 30 degrees, both intersecting panels will have a 15 degree miter.
