Build Your Own Saddle Stand Dimensions

The first step of the project is to build the sides of the saddle stand.

Build your own saddle stand dimensions.

Mark the cut lines on the slats and get the job done with a jigsaw. The saddle rack should be built tall enough or mounted high enough on the wall so that no portion of the saddle touches the ground. Rip them 9 5 for the front back panels. Crosscut six pieces 24 23 7 8 for the two sides front back panels and the top slats.

Use sandpaper to smooth the edges or a router with a round bit. So my wife wanted something decent to rack her saddle on and challenged me to make something for as little money as possible. Measure sides of wood. Rip them 2 for the seven top slats.

For this join the two 1x12 inch wooden planks together using adhesive. Use 1 12 lumber for the components. Step by step color photos and instructions plus rob s shopping list make building a saddle stand easy even if you have never built anything before. Cut the rack pieces determine the desired size of the saddle rack or use the dimensions here.

How to build your own saddle stand. This design requires one 12x8 or 12x10 one inch thickness board and three 3x8 one inch boards plus some screws a robe hook a saw even a hand saw drill and bits and optionally some stain varnish. Measure 3 inch on both sides of the center mark and make two more impressions. Use a marker to make a mark at the center of the narrow section of the joined woods.

For a western saddle because the stirrups permanently hang down from the tree the rack will need to be higher than that for an english saddle on which the stirrups are run up prior to placing it on the rack. Drill a starting holes and use a jigsaw to make a 3 hole.
