Parametric Couch Riser
Description
PDFOverview
This is an adjustable riser for square legged couches. You can edit the size and height of the riser via parameters in the FCStd file.
I found that for my couch, 88mm was enough for the leg to fit snugly in the riser without putting pressure on the lip.
I found that 25mm was enough height to allow my robot vacuum cleaner to fit under the couch without issue while not dramatically changing its appearance or causing instability.
You will need to remove the small pad nailed into the bottom of the couch leg if it is there. Failure to do so will likely cause cracking of the riser.
If there is interest, I can release models with separate X and Y inner dimensions and/or a recess for the small pad.
