All of the wood except the plywood was recycled from someone down the road who rebuilt their deck. They were a bit confused when I asked for their trash but it worked out. That got me the frame, a bit of the hardware, and all of the holds. Someone on r/homewalls alerted everyone that grainger was selling some relevant stuff for pennies at the time, so I managed to get the bolts, screws, and t-nuts super cheap. The most expensive part was the plywood, which if I remember right was about $165.
I did break about 30 holds while learning what the wood could sustain and how far I could push it, but at this point they’re all pretty solid.
Damn how’d you do this for only $300?
