Hidden in the Crutch

Hidden compartments have always been fascinating, for young and old. You can hide something in almost any object. When I look around a room, I see potential. In this case, I saw potential in this crutch in the dumpster.

This project is easy and doesn't require any special tools, just a drill.

The only building step in this project is drilling.

Remove the rubber bottom and drill into the wood. You can go as deep as you want. I went as far as I could since, well, why not?

Drill Bit Selection: To pick the size of a drill bit, make sure it will be big enough for what you are to be hiding. In this case I thought of money, so I chose a bit slightly bigger than a rolled up dollar.

Now all you need to do is hide your item in the crutch, replace the rubber boot, and then walk around with a crutch!
