Before you start
  • Use this dimensioned concept to study proportions and variations. It is not a construction plan; connection, release and installation details require a separate design.
  • Brush material, quantity, exposed height, flexibility, retention, drainage and inspection criteria are not specified. The 6 in projection is not a riding-use recommendation.
  • The 3 1/2 in opening does not establish hoof exclusion or acceptable yielding behavior.
  • Connections and ground restraint for the holder and liners are not detailed or load-rated.
Plan details

DIY brush jump plans for horses

Explore a long, low brush-jump form. The timber holder is 120 in long and 24 in high, supported by three transverse feet. A dashed reference shows brush extending 6 in above the timber. This is a visual design reference, not a construction plan.

Explore a long, low brush-jump form. The timber holder is 120 in long and 24 in high, supported by three transverse feet. A dashed reference shows brush extending 6 in above the timber. Design inspiration with dimensioned drawings, editable concept models and an indicative timber takeoff.

Open the native file in FreeCAD to inspect or edit individual solid components. The dimension spreadsheet is informational and does not regenerate geometry.

The STEP export carries matching concept geometry. Missing joints, cups and anchorage are intentional omissions from this visual reference.

Save changes in a separate study file. When changing dimensions, update the related model geometry and reference quantities together.

Quantity notes

Indicative full-stock allocation for comparing the illustrated timber concept. This is not a complete purchase order. Hardware, structural connections, coatings, ground anchorage and installation materials are outside this timber takeoff. Brush and its retention system are also excluded.

  • Southern Pine No.2 2 x 6, UC4A for feet, 8 ft: Three 24 in feet and three 18 1/2 in uprights across two boards with kerfs.
  • Southern Pine Industrial 45 1 x 6, UC3B minimum, 12 ft: Cut each to 120 in. Extra stock length allows clean end trimming.
  • Southern Pine 5/4 x 6 liner stock, actual 1 x 5 1/2 in, 10 ft: Two 57 1/2 in liners per board. UC3B minimum; retention/fasteners unresolved.

BEFORE YOU BUILD

Use this work at your own risk

These files have not been checked for accuracy, safety, structural adequacy, or building-code compliance. They may contain serious errors and are not construction-ready. Obtain independent qualified design and review before building.

No promise is made about accuracy, completeness, reliability, code compliance, or fitness for your project.

Buildings and building projects are complex, and many things can go wrong. You are responsible for checking dimensions and site conditions, choosing suitable materials and methods, obtaining permits, following codes and manufacturer instructions, and getting qualified professional help when needed.

Step 1 Read the holder proportions

  • The main timber form is 120 in long with 24 in feet and a 24 in timber top. The three frame centers are 3/4, 60 and 119 1/4 in.

Check: Separate the timber height from the dashed brush reference.

Step 2 Follow the face-board pattern

  • Three horizontal boards on each side have lower edges at 5 1/2, 12 and 18 1/2 in above ground. The two visible gaps create the open-board appearance.

Check: Identify the six face boards and their spacing.

Step 3 Look into the top opening

  • Four liners, each 1 x 5 1/2 x 57 1/2 in, sit within the two clear bays with 1/8 in end gaps. They reduce the illustrated opening to 3 1/2 in.

Check: Locate the four liners and the 3 1/2 in cavity.

Step 4 Explore the planting-like texture

  • Use the drawing to explore the brush silhouette and color. The dashed brush is a visual reference only; its material, density and retention are not modeled or included in the timber count.

Check: Keep any brush appearance study separate from a specified physical insert.
