You sometimes only realise the weight you are placing on your carpet when you try to move furniture, and there for all to see are deep depressions in the pile. Well, here\u2019s a solution!<\/p>\n\n<p>Wall-to-wall carpets are found in many homes, if not most, as they are a very popular floor covering. The only drawback are the depressions that furniture feet leave in the carpet pile.<\/p>\n\n<p>To give you an idea\u2026 four feet in the form of four round ferrules each with a diameter of 3cm, if supporting a recliner of, say 30kg, and an adult of, say 100kg, will see a weight of more than 33kg on each foot\u2026 that\u2019s 33kg pressing into the carpet in a circle of just 3cm\u2026 a lot of pressure!<\/p>\n\n<p>The solution is to increase the \u2018footprint\u2019 of the piece of furniture without actually making any changes to it, spread the 130kg over a far greater area than originally.<\/p>\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how to do it  and save your carpets at the same time. (Note: The other issue is when you move the recliner, the foot is pulled out of its depression and over time, with repeated shifting, that can put strain on the carpet weave, start wearing it and eventually you end up with a ripped carpet.)<\/p>\n\n<p>First: how much weight is on the feet? The feet on the recliners pictured here are 3cm in diameter, which means each one has an area of just over 7cm\u00b2. The weight of the recliner is 38kg  so round it off to 40kg. With an occupant weighing, let us say 70kg, you have a total weight of 110kg on a total area of 28cm\u00b2 (4&#215;7). That works out to 4kg\/cm\u00b2, in round figures.<\/p>\n\n<p>Now for the feet made here\u2026 Each is 60x15cm, which equals an area of 900cm\u00b2, for a total then of 1800cm\u00b2. That drops the pressure on the carpet from 4kg\/cm\u00b2 to about 60g\/cm\u00b2  which is much easier for the carpet to handle. Not only that, because there are no sharp depressions, the seat can be moved more easily over the carpet without damaging the pile.<\/p>\n\n<p>The bonus is: these feet are so easy to make.<\/p>\n\n<p>Always use MDF  medium-density fibreboard  it can be very easily routed, and as it comprises highly compressed tiny particles, there are no splinters to catch your carpet\u2019s fibres.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Project Guide:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Time: 1 day<br \/>\nCost: R50<br \/>\nSkill: 1<br \/>\nAssistant: No<br \/>\t\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tools required:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"listStyles\">\n<li>Jigsaw<\/li>\n<li>Drill<\/li>\n<li>Sander<\/li>\n<li>Router<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Materials:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul class=\"listStyles\">\n<li>One 9mm sheet MDF  600&#215;600<\/li>\n<li>Wood Glue<\/li>\n<li>Finish of your choice<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>**All materials are available at Selected Mica Stores.
