Wrap/Bandage Holder for the Tack Trunk

Wrap/Bandage Holder

Wrap/Bandage Holder

I’m creating a removable wrap and bandage holder for the tack trunk. Here’s a view of the design along with how it will look mounted in the lid of the trunk.

The holder has two compartments. The smaller one is 6 inches wide and 3 inches deep. The larger compartment will be 12 inches long and 3 inches deep. Both compartments will be approximately 12 inches high.  Do these dimensions seem reasonable for bandage, standing wrap and polo wrap storage ?

Here’s how the holder will look in the chest lid. The bottom will be held in place with a 1/2 inch strip of wood and this strip will also help to position the wrap holder correctly. The handle will be secured to the lid top using two broom handle hanger supports.

I had to increase the height of the lid to 5 inches in order to contain the wrap/bandage holder. I think this height will still work.

  • Thanks for this – I really enjoyed the article and a good deal of the information here I can certainly make use of. Being an avid woodworker myself with a few years of experience under my belt you can never stop learning new things. My skill level is nowhere near what I would like it to be although it is true that practice does indeed make perfect! I have a small wood shop which I spend many hours crafting various home objects – my current project is a pine cabinet with single door, which is coming along nicely. I am using these new Wood Working Plans which have helped me immensely in terms of getting things right first time. I am aware many woodworkers use these plans, since they are simple yet detailed in their instruction – has anyone here tried them? I would be interested to see how others had got on with them, and whether they find them as pleasurable to deal with as I have?
