Selfmade wooden loading pin
A few weeks ago I attended a workshop by Gabriel Prange in the Berlin bouldering gym Berta Block. The workshop was about training for climbing. Part of it has been a strength analysis of the fingers. And this is still one of my weaknesses. I also discovered that finger strength training with a lifting device can have certain advantages over a classic hangboard. Even if I have a very nice beastmaker Motherboard setup.
I already had the 360° Hangboard to warm up at the crag. And enough weight plates. So all I needed was a loading or lifting pin. I found this beautiful Lifting Pin. But I thought I could handcraft a similar one by myself.
OscillatorNode example to play beep sounds in JavaScript
I am using my interval timer tool more often in the last couple of month. Mostly for lifting weights with my fingers. And to improve the usage of this tool I would like to play a beep sound before and after every break. One possible solution could be to load and play a audio file in JavaScript. An other solution are OscillatorNodes. I like about this approach that I do not need to buy a audio or create it on my own. And I am even more flexible on sound timing. So I created a small post to play around with OscillatorNodes.
