Groot Stilt Question

[Declanuk123]

Maybe this is in the wrong section?

Anyway, i've seen many Groot builds on here, but i've only seen a couple that actually show the stilts/platforms...

Just wondering if some Groot builders can show me some pictures of their stilts.... (Home-made ofcourse)


Many Thanks,

Declan

This was my approach. My son is less than 5' tall, and to get the 7+ feet effect we were after, I used drywall stilts and applied tomato cages to them to give them the shape I was after. He is now over 7' tall and walks very well in them. I hope this helps!

I am in the process of building, tried drywall stilts but felt walking at convention might be more than i'm willing to handle. i'll post pics tomorrow, but I took 2 pails, filled with spray foam and strapped/screwed my runners to them. I put eva foam on the bottom to give grip and even out the bottoms. I find them very light and sturdy to walk in and less cumbersome than homemade 2x4 constructions I've found.
