TaylorMadeHolds is a North Wales based climbing hold company built and founded by me, James Taylor.
I have been climbing for just over a decade and making holds for myself for over 4 years. I have a large home training setup with 15°, 35° and 50° boards... so I know what feels good on each angle and how to make holds to suit.

Making Climbing Holds - Total Chaos
Переглядів 3,2 тис.11 місяців тому
Chaos Pattern Wenge and Maple climbing holds hand made in a small workshop in North Wales. Inspired by the chopping board industry I decided to make a chaos end-grain board and then chop the chopping board up to make a set of mirrored climbing holds.

How to (How I) make a portable hangboard
Переглядів 3 тис.Рік тому
In this video I will take you through how I make portable hangboards. Its a really simple design that relies on a few basic power tools and a nice jig. I'm sure you could get away with a lot less than tools than this but it makes my life much easier!

these are awesome, what size washers do you use for these?
@ngtmystery m5 countersunk washers. They are 14mm across with a 5mm hole. So I use a 15mm forstner bit first then a 5mm brad point bit after.
Great video! These holds look amazing.
Dude! These are gorgeous!
Holds look amazing, what paste wax do you use ?
Yeah I imagine the costly part of making these is the amount of consumables you'd go through (including thicknesser and bandsaw blades), especially if your setup is focussed around working timbers of soft-medium hardness. I wonder if a focussed v-hard setup would be closer to a machining setup? Sintered blades, cnc, diamond disks instead of sandpaper heh. Maybe danish oil as the cutting fluid 😂
Really interesting. Maybe convinced me I should not try to make my own!
Ah you should defiantly give it a go! Any questions just ask and I will try to help out :)
I just placed my first order, and I'm so stoked.
Amazing work, my local gym has a few of your holds on their spray wall, they feel amazing to climb on esp after a hard session on normal plastic holds, esp when some of them have an extreme grit feel. Keep the good work up. :)
Sooo beautiful, than for the awesome video. Keep em coming.
Taylormade thanks so much for the video, was great to see your process for making these beautiful holds - wow! If I might mention one thing, across a couple of places in your video the gain on your vocals for super high relative to other places and it was uncomfortable to listen to, most of the time the audio was great, but yeah in a few places it was just so much louder than at other times and it felt like it is distorting your voice a bit.
Beautiful holds. Hope to own a set one day for my wall!
Very nice one
excellent holds and brilliant to use, Highly recommend thanks guys
Cheers :)
What size are those screw cups and where do you get them?
😂
Wicked!
how do you put your logo on them is it a custom brand? if so where did you get it
I use a lazer at the moment but I used to have a brand I got from Etsy there are plenty of sellers on there. I would get an electric powered one as its much faster, efficient and more accurate than one you heat with a blow torch.
@@taylormadeholds280 thank you so much very helpful. I've just tried some ebonising solution on some of. my holds have you ever tried it .id love to see some that wasn't done by me as they are a bit crap.
Beautiful holds, very aesthetically pleasing. The Wenge/ Maple holds look fabulous too. I have no idea how much you charge for them but it’s probably not enough!
Thanks. They are normally up on my website taylormadeholds.com with the prices there. They take a long time and I try to price them fairly so the customer dosent overpay and I can keep my workshop open and enjoy my work
The best vídeo!
Thank you - more coming soon!
those look GORGEOUS, really cool idea
Thankyou :)
You did a pretty nice job!!!
Hey what size finishing washers do you use? M5?
Those holds are a work of art, beautiful!
Such cool holds!
@Taylormadeholds what router bit do you use to make the pockets? And the boards look amazing.
Promo*SM
Those look incredible! What size round over bit do you use to make the bevel?
I have about 5 different ones for the different holds and vary it quite a bit depending on how i want the hold to be. If its for a steep board then it doesn't need to be as large but for a vert board it needs to be larger for more comfort. 1/4 inch is a good starting place for a general crimp
@@taylormadeholds280 Sweet, thanks
Very nice Demonstration Very nice holds as well
Thanks 😊 I really like this design but can be a bit of a pain if I mess up late in the process!
very cute ..... now why, unless your some hipster douchbag who fancies form over function ??!! its a climbing hold, get over yourself .......
Why are you not using a planer for the thin boards? Are they too thin for safe planing? Great video, wooden hold making are my favorite UA-cam videos and my hobby as well.
The thin strips would get destroyed in a planer on their own. You can use the glue and tape method of temporary mounting them to a thicker board and then using the planer. Best practice is a drum sander. I don't have a drum sander but wanted to try and make one work with the wide belt sander. I had a go and it worked perfectly and is much quicker and probably better than mounting and planing them + spear thrower!
Awesome stuff
beautiful
Always wear safety glasses when using power tools, you have only one set of eyes
Love it. Keep up the good work. I love your videos
Beautiful work.
GIVE US MORE ;)
what router bits do you use?
I really like your work. What kind of bevel do you put on the pockets? People always specify the depth of the pockets they train on, but that is not a very meaningful number of you don't know the roundover...
Looks like a 1/4 inch roundover bit
Really cool fingerboard! Nice one!
Thanks Ellen :)
id be interested seeing a vid on how you make those pockets! been faffing around a bit at home trying to make one with a drill, not going great haha. i reckon you use the tableroute for the inside?
yep its a total faff and will take a full video to explain how I do them... its not the most refined process at the moment!
This is a sick boulder, it's aesthetics ate amazing
No shipping to Aus? Devastated, these look amazing
I can ship to Aus no bother just not through my website. Email me Taylormadeholds@gmail.com and I can get you a quote for holds and shipping.
@@taylormadeholds280 legend, cheers!
Really nice work! I tried something similar out of some maple I had milled up but had a hell of a time routing the slots without a plunge router. Ended up ripping the slots with a table saw all the way across instead. Definitely not as good looking but easier to mass produce
I did think about that option but I had done the router method before and knew I could do it with a bit of time and effort. I have some ideas for my next fingerboard project that involves a glue up so I'm going to rip and stick, like the cheater method of making a tennon for the whole board 😀
@@taylormadeholds280 sounds awesome I'm looking forward to hopefully see a video on that!
Absolutely gorgeous. Fired up on your videos! Keep ‘em coming 🙌🙏
Cheers, glad you like the results of me stumbling around Premier Pro pressing buttons and hoping for the best!
Nice one mate !
Thanks 😊
Love the vid! Cool to see different processes. What angle cut is that 36 seconds?
Cheers, glad you liked the video. More coming soon. I don't know the angle, I usually set up the saw to match the wood rather than the other way round. I think its called reference measuring but realistically its just the most simple way and fastest way... doesn't matter if the holds are a few mm off they're not cabinets or furniture and i can make the corrections so they are perfectly mirrored with the sanding process:)
I may have skipped past it, just wondering what the little metal bits the screws sit on are called? I see a few wooden holds using them, just can't seem to find them anywhere.
Do you find out what they are called?
They look like threaded inserts without the thread 😂 they look like thicker washers just the fasteners have something to be seated in 👍🏼
Can you add jour selling webadress? i am interested to buy.
www.taylormadeholds.com Thanks, glad you like them :)
Very cool, what grit of sandpaper did you go up to?
I usually go up to 180 on the backs of the holds and 120 of the face you grip so they still have some nice grain and texture. Sometimes I polish the backs after sanding all the way to 1000grit but always leave the edge you're going to hold at 100 or 120.
Amazing work! Just curious what you do for foot holds?
I use half domes made from hard wood. You can get similar on amazon they're called semisphere or something like that.
