C-Brace Stand by Brett Engmark

Solid State Depot member Brett Engmark designed and built a beautiful wooden stand for his daughter’s leg brace in the SSD wood shop.

I designed this stand for a c-brace my daughter my obtained to help her walk. It needs to stand to be charged. I wanted a design that was artistic, simple and functional. Something that could sit in a living room and feel like furniture.

It’s made of black walnut. The braces are bent laminations made from thin slices of walnt and glued on a form. I’ve made 2 of these in the SSD shop, 1 for my daughter and another for her friend.
