XC jumps - Anyone make their own?

[Vikki89]

As title really just wondering if anyone makes their own xc jumps or where do you buy them from?

we had a lot of trees cut down this year so I have used some to build log jumps but that's it as far as my creative side goes and XC jumps.

I'd love to, but lack of materials/ space to put the jumps is a problem. I could have great fun designing them though! =D

We've got a few home made ones at the yard - 2 tiger traps and a chair - all made with half-rounds, and a trakhener over a natural ditch between 2 fields.

We don't use them much now though tbh, although because they are in the fenceline, some of the horses like to use them when they want to swap fields

I'm going to have a go at making some, can get some materials, hopfully find some space

just trying to think of what to make.

We have some tyres hung on a long piece of wood, a tiger trap, some old small square bales with a piece of wood across the top to hold them together a bit more and we made a brush fence by tying bits of fir tree to wood. Oh and an old door to make a bit of a skinny with.
Have fun!

I know someone who made a skinny triple brush made with old brooms - very effective

Hadn't thought of using old brooms, good ideas, anyone have anymore

am sure someone posted a while back had made some out of square garden trellis.

We don't have any suitable ditches (they are all huge round here!) so we make a trakehner with rustic poles over a couple of super large black seed trays from the garden centre. (about a fiver each)

and they had made a brush fence too but I can't remember what with some reed/willow panel stuff I think
