I made a wooden boot jack on the 3D modeling application solid works. The point of this device is too remove your boot for you. You just stick your foot in-between the fork and it will pull it off. I would have actually build the boot jack but I broke my finger and I am in a cast and cant use my hand to the full extent (I'm going to build it sometime this summer when my finger heals).

Supplies

2 1X6 ft pieces of wood it doesn't matter which kind but I used poplar

jigsaw

cordless drill

sand paper

hand clamps

sand paper

varnish or paint

wood glue

tape measure

pencil

Step 1: Cut the Wood

Using a jigsaw cut a 18 inch long piece out of one the boards. Trace your heel or a candle about 3-1/2" away from the end. The radius should be no more than 2" in diameter. To elevate the top board off of the ground cut a 2 inch tall piece 5 inches wide. This piece goes on the bottom. Sand paper is not required but it will make your boot jack look a lot better. Remember before you cut use a pencil to mark your lines.

Step 2: Attaching the Pieces

after everything is cut use the wood glue to attach the stand to the underside of the fork. Then from the bottom drill 2-4 screws into the stand but make sure to not go through the top of the jack. After that apply the paint or varnish of your choice.

Step 3: Additional Information

If you want to add In grooves that not only look good but help reduce slip you can use a router. A metal plate could also work but It would not be as efficient.
