Hey all, new to the forum. Been in the process of building a backyard wall for a while. Always expanding it, wanted to see what the world thought of it. Any ideas or critiques are very welcome. Sorry to link to YouTube, I'll get more in depth pictures and such when i get home if someone wants to see more. Have also added in a 35° negative at the top right (open space in the video). And also currently undertaking building a large crag from concrete. I'll document how to do that if anyone is interested.
Got a few other videos on the channel if you want to digg around. Thanks guys

That's sweet you should add a board on top that goes halfway across for roof climbing.

I'm eventually going to make it an octagon shape, then run a roof arch possibly. Thanks for the input, man. I'll put some pictures up later of some new updates.

Got a few new pictures. Firstly, the wall at night from a few nights ago...


And then, my crag and boulder work. Me and my pops used to build waterfalls for a living. My dad learned rock smithing from a guy who worked on Magic Mountain in Disney, no joke. Going to make a separate post in a while to show how to do the basics in rock building.







And my new slants, lower and upper east...






And finally, a couple of shots of some mesh work, soon to be a boulder and crag.







Alright guys, Thats it for picture time, methinks. It's Thanksgiving, I'm just going to sit here in a robe all day.
