Sorry to be naive, but what is a bootjack?

Excellent timing. I've needed to make one of these to get my work boots off. Thank you for the plan.

You step on a bootjack with one foot and catch the back of your other boot in its crotch, allows handless removal of boots, usually dirty..
The nice thing is if you just do the profile cut, it takes 2 min and 40 seconds to cut it out with a smooth finish to the cut using last pass.
Im not that fast on the bandsaw, and then having to remove marks.

Thanks for explaining and showing me what a bootstrap is. I guess I knew, but wasn't sure. I don't wear boots like that, so I guess that is also why I was unsure.

Downloaded and Changed the Font to a HAYMAKER font style (downloaded previously not part of the V-Carve font library) which is a more western style look for when I get around to making mine.

Great Idea and Thank you for Sharing!
