1:16 Fiddlehead – Adjustable Foot Rest

This boat has no thwarts or seats. One sits on the bottom, maybe on a cushion, not on any built-in seat. One of the comfort accommodations is an adjustable footrest. Making it was something to do while waiting for the stems to set up. The footrest has a simple rail that’s screwed to the bottom and has several holes drilled for different positions. The rest itself has two holes for finer adjustment and a pin extended from the knob to hold it in place. This is another of the fine scale features, complete with simulated screw heads.
