Many people work in the office and they often want to put their feet on some kind of stand or elevation so that they can relax a bit. But not everyone has such an opportunity, and especially not always. In this case, the most ideal option would be to make a small durable stand yourself at home and bring it to the office so that you could work and relax at the same time.
The video shows the process of creating a very comfortable and height-adjustable footrest
To create the stand you need to prepare:
- board;
- glue "moment";
- staples;
- screws;
- metal corner;
- a piece of board.
First of all, you need to cut out all the necessary details from the board. These will be two sidewalls that will serve as legs, and three parts that will form the very platform for the legs.
We make side legs in mirror image, and we also attach a rotary mechanism to them, which will help regulate the height of the stand. Details for the site - we perform the same. Do not forget to make compensation grooves in them, they will allow the tree to not collapse when the air is too dry and too hot.
We clean everything with sandpaper.
After all the parts are prepared and cleaned, you can begin to assemble the stand.
Assembly is carried out using glue of the moment, brackets and screws.
We coat the board with glue along the very edge and apply it to the sidewall. We fix using one bracket with the edge. Then using a metal corner we check whether the board is positioned correctly. Correct if necessary its position. When everything is set, fix the board with the second bracket.
In exactly the same way, we attach the second side of the board to the second sidewall, as well as the remaining two boards.
Now we make a jumper for the stand from the cutter bar, it will give strength and stability to it. We mill the jumper, clean it with sandpaper and attach it to the stand. First, we put glue on the ends and put it in a row between the sidewalls. After that we fix with two studs and one screw on each side.
Now the stand is ready. We cover it with wood impregnation or paint. After that, varnish and give to use.
