Squat Wedge for Improving Lifting Form

I didn't want to spend $100 CAD on a pair of rubber squat lift wedges, so I made this quick design in Tinkercad for a pair of my own. You'll be putting a lot of weight on them, so the more infill you can afford (timewise and material-wise) the better. It is roughly 2 inches tall, 8 inches long, and 5 inches wide. There is a groove to mark the 1 inch point to make it easier to get started at the ideal heel placement for your body type. Longer legs will want to go higher. I will add more to this later. If you use these, then it is at your own risk. Be safe! It uses a significant amount of filament - probably at least half a roll will be necessary for under each foot to make it structurally sound. I will likely add a top layer for flexible materials to cover the wedge for better traction If you can cut wood at the right angle, then you should definitely go that route, as it is cheaper and more durable. If you remix the item, or have any comments or concerns, please leave them in comments or send me a message. I will shortly add a printable mold in case you want to cast a solid rubber block from liquid urethane or something similar. And if you're feeling generous and find this helpful, please tip at paypal.me/kylegreves
