Has anyone seen plans for this?
I saw this in a catalog on a flight a couple weeks ago and would love to make one. Has anyone ever seen plans? Usually I am an improviser, but I think that proportions to maintain balance are pretty important for this.

Just my first impression...
that's an awful big box to hold a few shoes.

Good call, fiatben. SWMBO happened to be standing behind me when I opened the link and put in an order for eight units. At least two customized for UGG's and two for Berkenstocks.fiatben wrote:that's an awful big box to hold a few shoes.

As said - some folks would like it! You can buy one for "only $339.00.
Seems making one would save more than the $90 off of the original price.

That looks nice, but what happens to the shoes when you fold it up? Would it be better with pull out drawers, or shelves with a couple of doors, then the shoes would stay flat and not standing on the toes ?
