Part Two: How to develop your Woodie!


So based on the questions asked in the first post, I think the first question you need to ask is "Who is the user group for my woodie?"  By this question I mean; Is the wall going to be only for you as a training device? Is it going to be for fun-times with beginner friends? Are little ones, such as kids going to be using it?  Answering these questions will help guide the design process.

The second set of questions I would ask are;
  • How big is the space you have to work with?
    • Can I mount to existing Structures?
    • Will the floor structure carry the weight of my Woodie?
So below are some photos of walls that I have been involved with,  and some from other blog authors.

The design model for our new garage wall, in our Denver, CO rental.

Basically a giant woodie.

Part three will be the construction of the new home wall design.  With photos throughout the process to help you develop your proper woodi!
