    Looking to set up a belay/rappel station in my garage just for practice, trying out new things, and general faffery. I'm not super handy but can work my way around simple power tools. Anyway, my current plan is to: drill holes into a piece of 2x4 install tee nuts at the back (or maybe threaded inserts at the front, or failing that, nuts at the back.) install the hangers using M12 bolts (as per hanger specs) screw that unit directly into wall studs in my garage using deck screws slap on some quicklinks to the hangers and call it a day Thoughts? Hanging a picture frame is one thing, but supporting body weight is another entirely! I suppose it doesn't have to, but it'd be nice for it to be able to.
