Info On Makin "platform" Styled Boots Or Shoes - puckface - 05-11-2006
Can sumome help me out? Im only about 6\' and I wanna add 2-3 inches through boots. I dont really wanna buy platfrom boots, but will if I have to. Anyone got any tips on how to make my own? Who knows, by September I may not need them, (for the haunted house) becuase Im still a growin dude and may add an inch or two by then, but Im just tryin to be better safe then sorry.
thanks

fastest easiest cheapest way to add a quick couple inches??
Roll up a sock and tape it down inside your boot at the heel. do that to both boots. It\'ll raise your heel an inch or two and doesn\'t cost anything. You\'ll feel kinda like you\'re walking in high heeled boots, but it\'s cheap and it works. I did it last halloween for my Jas\' pt 4 costume.

go to a shoe repair store and ask for larger heels or i heard of someone adding plywood screwed into the boots tread but add some traction to them or youll slip and slide all night tty after attaching it use a router (plunge router) and a straight bit

I took 2inch thick rubber.. i got it from work.. not sure what its used for.. i took the squares and traced them on my boots.. took a jigsaw and cut em out..sanded em down then screwed them to the boot.. then i took some thick hiney styrofoam..heavy DUTY, then put in the boots.. i then heated up a peice of flat bar and melted the foam down at a slope at the toes.. leaving it elavted and the heel.. i gained overall 4.5INCHES!!!! WOW!!!!!!

If your 6\' ft, then I dont think you really need to be taller. Warlock was prob. 5\'10 and the tallest was Brad loree and i thnk he\'s like 6\'1". I think youre already good to go man. Either way good luck.

yea, I know that there are a few who werent that tall, but when ya got jerks who come through the haunted house, and give ya shiza becuase you arent taller then them, it gets old
