Hi, I'm looking for someone to fit some rock climbing holds to a wall. Involves drilling 50 holds using special bolts.

Requires attached bolts.

Can't help you with fixing them but what material are planning to fix the holds to with those bolts?  They are designed to be used in plasterboard which I certainly wouldn't want to fix climbing holds to.  Maybe suitable in plywood.

Apologies.  I thought it might be helpful to possibly prevent you or someone else from falling off your own climbing wall.  How could I be so stupid.

Thanks for the support El! Some people just want to voice an off-topic opinion rather than answer the post correctly. :)
