boot shape retainer

thingiverse

Tall boots fall over at the ankle due to a design flaw, rendering them useless. To prevent this, one must use inserts that support the boot and keep it upright. This device is precisely such an insert. I print these supports with minimal material usage, eliminating top and bottom layers altogether and using sparse infill patterns with few shell layers. The OpenSCAD code for this design is included below. It's not my finest work, but it gets the job done.
