This is a super easy project. I made it with spare parts from my garage so it cost me nothing. You can substitute some equipment for others so the only thing you really need is a piece of PVC pipe. They’re so easy and cheap, I made two – one for my trailer and one for my tack room.
Supplies Needed:
2′ PVC pipe
PVC pipe cutter (or saw or even a dremel)
Hot glue gun (or regular glue and some patience or super glue)
Black (or other color) spray paint
1. Cut your PVC pipe into 5 even pieces of 3″
2. Hot glue the pieces together.
3. Spray paint the whole thing and let it dry.
4. Glue to the wall in your tack room/locker. We glued ours to our tack room door. Insert whips/crops and you’re done.
The only downside to this type of holder is that it won’t fit the large bat types of crops. You can see the one sitting in the corner. I just shoved that one back in Eugene’s equipment bin. For the cost of free, I’m very happy with this little project.
That is a great idea. What if you cut an opening in the front of one of them to get the larger bat in?
I thought about that, but honestly, I had already glued it to the wall once I realized that crop wouldn’t fir. At least I got the majority up off the floor.
Nice! Mine all just end up lying around…
Ours were all over too.
So handy! One day I hope to have a place that I can try some of these DIY projects 😀
So easy and SO useful!
