50 is just right

With the 40 pack you don't get the number of roof jugs. With 60 you get mostly more screw-ons. With 50 you have a perfect base climbing wall. Just a couple misc notes: You will always need more holds. I already bought a set of 5 roof jugs. I suspect I'll by more holds a few at a time forever. You need to buy more T nuts if you are starting from scratch. They only include enough T-nuts to mount the holds it comes with, and you'll need a lot more in a piece of plywood. The instructions say ACX plywood. They should elaborate and say for indoor use any AC, AB, or AA plywood will be fine. Just don't get any BC or lower as it will have voids that your holds may pull through. If you go into Home Depot or the like and ask for ACX plywood nobody will know what you are talking about, tell them AC or AB. Climbing outdoors is still superior. Use a climbing wall for training when you can't go outside (i.e. you live in Florida 10 hours from any walls or it is raining/snowing)
