In this review, we will tell you how to make a "beetle-beetle" (or it is also called a bug-batman). This homemade product is a simple device made of plywood and a horseshoe, which serves to conveniently remove shoes that have no fasteners.
Now, to take off your shoes, you don’t have to get your hands dirty if the shoes are dirty, and also bend down - this is especially important for pregnant women, the elderly and for those who have problems with the spine.
Of the main advantages of this device, it is worth noting the ease of manufacture and ease of use. In general, a useful and necessary thing for all family members. And to make such a "beetle-beetle" is very simple.
The main stages of work
First of all, we attach a horseshoe to a piece of plywood, circle it with a marker or a pencil, and then draw the shape of the “beetle” itself. If you wish, you can also use a ready-made template by downloading it from the Internet.
Next, the author cuts the workpiece on a band saw (or you can get by with a jigsaw), mills it and then grinds it. And in the end, an almost finished product was obtained.
At the next stage, it remains only to cut off the excess parts near the horseshoe, drill holes in it and fasten it to the plywood. In this case, the horseshoe serves as an emphasis on the heel of the shoe.
The author fastens several bars to the bottom of the plywood so that the foot area is located at an angle. To give the product a finished look, it remains only to paint it.
In detail about how to make a “beetle-beetle” from plywood and a horseshoe with your own hands, we recommend watching this video.
