Terrry wanted to build a bench that allowed him to tie his shoe in the best geometry available for comfort.
Assembly Testing

Looking on the Internet, in particular he had liked a stool with a foot rest.
|
 |
In the shop, using a pair of
saw benches,we visualized what a stool/bench might look like...we
decided to alter design of the saw bench...shorten it up... |
 |
I had made a Sketchup when I
built the saw benches... |
 |
Using the same rough dimensions, I shortened the length...dropped the shelf, rounded the end, added a bottom rail...
|
 |
Based on repeated real world
tests...we decided to create the foot rest at a greater height than
the bench. |
 |
Reverse view... |
 |
Design changes...we decided not to attach the two elements...the bench will not be attached to the stool... Sketchup bench redesign with no shelf. |

with shelf... |
