Doctor Bag Frame on Dopp Bag

[Zonker1972]

has anyone ever used a doctor's bag frame on a dopp bag?

I feel like it would keep the dopp bag open and allow you to get things in and out a lot easier.

I used that particular frame on a "doctors" type bag; it's pretty big for a dopp bag.

i was afraid that it might be too large.

If you are handy at all you can make your own frame, not much to them.

Smaller versions are available. Here is a site on ETSY that offers a variety of sizes.

thanks for the link. i also found an instructable where he just makes the frame out of 1/8x1/2" steel. obviously that would allow you to make it in any size you need.
