1364920 2014-01-11 09:43:00 Not really a tech problem, but I was looking at footrest at Warehouse Stationery. Holy batman - search.warehousestationery.co.nz they are not cheap!

Do any of you have a creative DIY solution?

Cheers :)

1364923 2014-01-11 11:16:00 I use a small bean bag as a footrest,, bonus is they are quite insulating so they keep feet warm as well.

Bigger bean bags are good for dogs to sleep on and they also are warmer than if they were on the floor.

Good grief, what a rip off! :stare:

I just hook my feet up on the PC chair base. Or, if I wanted one of those footrests my DIY solution would be to get Mr FoxyMX to make me one. :p

Or get one of those lap trays with a bean bag base. That way your feet will remain fairly level and won't compress the bag.

I find that something is missing (i.e. a gap) if I rest my feet on the floor even though I am nearly six foot tall. Quite often I have to bend my legs right in and rest the feet on the chair base.
