rock climbing holds use a 3/8-16 allen head bolt to attach. You'll need to get some t-nuts, but most climbing hold companies provide the bolt with the hold...otherwise they're just 3/8-16 allen head bolts for the most part. I would recommend 4 pronged t-nuts over 3 prong. They're easy to find on ebay or else these on amazon will work just fine. There's a ton of climbing hold companies out there as well, but I'd recommend going to a local climbing gym first and see if they're selling any old holds first. Then, I'd go with Element Climbing Holds, E-grips, or three ball for cheaper holds.
I would say that 2.5 feet is too short and will be quickly out grown. I would make it whatever height a 4 foot tall piece of plywood would make it given the angle you have in the design.
Logistics of the gym...how will they get to the monkey bar rungs? Will they have to squeeze between the vertical rungs to get onto them? Maybe take out the top vertical rung so there's a place for them to transfer onto the top monkey bars?
For portability, could it be folded up? Maybe use a thick wood dowel on each side to the legs can folded inward for movement and storage and then you'd just have to have something on the outside that would stop the legs from opening up further than you want.
I need help finding the best solution for the bottom of my giant jenga carrying case.
I am wanting to make a carrying case like [this](
http://eastplum.blogspot.com/2014/04/giant-jenga-with-easy-storage-box.html), but I was hoping to get advice on what would be best to use to thread the threaded rods into the bottom.
A couple Ideas:
use t nuts, shown here.
Or some kind of threaded inserts, shown here
I didn't know if there would be a better solution to make the underside of the bottom board flat, yet allow a threaded rod to thread through that part. Another solution I have seen is simply putting a hex nut on the underside, but that makes it stick out on the bottom. Any help is greatly appreciated!
fyi If you need more I got 100 for $14 on amazon http://www.amazon.com/100-T-nuts-for-Climbing-Holds/dp/B003KIU2E8
