Foot Rest

This was made for my IB design tech class

This tutorial will explain how to make the 3 simple parts to make the foot rest, and the materials needed

Step 1 Sides

Step 2 Foot rest (place where foot rests)

Step 3 Putting the parts together

For this step you need two pieces of wood, cardboard cut in a trapezoid shape. While this can be changed for the one i made the dimensions for this piece where 11X12X5X9 inches. Picture of cardboard is included to better see how the trapezoidal shape is like.

This step requires one piece of cardboard or wood cut in a rectangular shape. Again this can be adjusted to better fit your feet but the one I made was 11X10X11X10.

This part is fairly simple and I involves putting the pieces you made together for a finished product if using wood I used screws but for my cardboard model I used gorilla glue. The two pieces you first made are used as a base to sandwich the rectangular piece. This rectangular piece is where your foot is resting while using it so instead of putting it perpendicular to the floor I decided to put it at a 35 degree slant to be more comfortable.
