Wall racks for full harness?

[Anonymous]

Anyone have a design/ instructions for a simple, yet classy, DIY full harness rack for the wall? Photos please. This request is urgent. The state of tack room is making me, textbook OCD-kid, a bit insane. Need organization help.

I’m not sure what you mean by a harness rack. I just have harness hooks that hold one harness each, maybe in a way too jumbled for an OCD-kid. But they’re cheap and easy to use, allowing easy transfer from hook to shoulder. Back when I started I made one out of a section of a small tree trunk with a short branch sticking out on one side nailed to a barn wall to hang the harnesses on. Hard to visualize from that description, I guess. Maybe you’re looking for something to display the harness horizontally along the wall…

I have built up a section of wall with PT 4X4s and home made metal supports for PT4X4X~30″ that stick out from the wall. I’ve got 5 supports that look a lot like massive saddle racks, and I hang the entire harness on them, britching out. They’re about 3″ higher than my shoulder so that I can slide my arm under britching all the way up to hames and pull harness off at one time. Collars hang above and bridles below. It’s worked out great for me. MAybe I can get some pictures.

I cut cedar posts about 30″ long, angled brace from under the post to the wall (looks about like a 45 degree angle). I hang my bridles on the hames and then the collar upside down on this in front of the harness, helps everything hold its shape. Sorry no pictures at this time.
