One of the more random things I've purchased.
The top off a 24ft mobile climbing wall.
Was on a trailer that raised it via hydraulics.
A mate spotted it in a scrapyard.
Paid £100.
Turns out it unbolts into 3x 8ft sections, going to board the ends and use them for pig arks.
They're already painted in camouflage too which is a bonus.

If you sold those handholds you would probably be in profit

That should meet higher welfare requirements for "enrichment"...
 
Bit of a pita to grease the the rear axle on the loadall.
Easiest way to get the rear end in the air to be able to rotate the wheel to get at the grease nipple 👍
