How to make a Boot Bench

[Bobzy20]

I just found this website, anybody fancy drawing it in 3D AutoCAD or whatever you use just for fun?

 

Maybe we could post a few results when completed?

 

Looks like a pretty cool bench to me.

You may check also the oldest posts in the Competition forum. Unfortunately some images were lost along the years, but we still can admire Hendie's work and other's too.

How about YOU draw it in 3D and WE critique it? It'll be good practice for you Bobzy20.

Ok i'm doing it now, i'll post it very soon.

Ok I’ve drawn the bench in 3D solids and I have a few little problems that need sorting.

 

1st thing is I would like the Back Rest to be fitted to the Bench but at the same angle as the Rear Legs although I’m not sure what angle they are at?

 

See attached CAD file.

Have you tried an angular dimension...?

 

You could also 3dAlign, however, rotating it is probably easier.
