Problem Fix w/BIG Parts!!!

[Kurt]

So - I have this weird problem at my place! I have a really NICE view from my Balcony - but, sadly - the Chair I bought was NOT the proper fit! Why? Cause - sitting in the chair makes it feel like I am In Prison - looking at the view via Prison Bars:

So - I previously showed a pic of these BIG parts I printed - and they are REALLY Solid suckers - and I did that on purpose - considering what I was going to use them for. The full set of 4 pieces were like 860 grams! Those pieces are on the stool next to that chair. And, yeah - it's the design of the chair - with a low seat - that makes for Bad viewing from my balcony:

Here they are installed:

And - yeah - it DOES look like it could potentially make the chair VERY Unstable - but, it felt really stable upon Carefully getting into the chair.

Well, this final pic Proves the prototype was a Success - And, I NO Longer feel like I am in Jail:

Kurt, save yourself a tumble off that balcony and epoxy those extensions on.

Even if I were to somehow Tumble off the chair - or it fell over cause one of the Risers got knocked - it would still be impossible to tumble off the Balcony. 

But, I do agree - gluing them onto the legs is a good idea. I am wondering if regular SuperGlue would be a decent option? I know it's CA Glue and NOT an actual Epoxy...

Thanks for the feedback.

You should have just gone with this design instead: https://www.printables.com/model/954255-periscopio-colapsable-collapsible-periscope

Yo!!!

1st - I was like - What the HELL is That? It Won't support my chair! Butt - then (and it's a BIG Butt) - I realized your Joke and a Very Poor Attempt at HUMOR!

FYI - that solution SUCKS - cause of the small FOV!

Yes but if you had a big butt it would be safer

Very Funny dude - Butt, even if Ur Joking - a Big Butt would indeed cushion my fall!

On a serious note - yeah, gluing the parts on is indeed a good idea - from a true Stability standpoint!!!
