:thinking: Did you know that even most 5 x 10's only have about 6'2" of mattress space? ;)

Thanks guy's! Yeah it is just too small for my family too, I am working on a either a 5x9 or 5x10, not so much because of my height but so i can stuff a few more kids in there, lol! Just looking into materials right now, I don't want a bunch of seams. I am a cabinet maker by trade so I think the next one will be a woody, possibly walnut with an aluminum top. Not sure yet, but I am excited to start it! Thanks again for the kind words :thumbsup:

Yes, I'm aware of that, but some do have longer, and it's possible to modify anything I would wager if you have the square footage :-).

How much clearance are you looking for, if you don't mind me asking?

I would need a minimum of 80" of mattress, preferably 84". But width is also important, 4' isn't big enough for my wife and I (even 5' would be cozy by her standards!).

Yep your tall alright, lol! Seems if you made the layout the same as I have it you could easily accomplish 84" with a 9'ft trailer and still gain an inch of depth in the galley. And then of course just make it 5' wide. Have you considered building one yourself?

Yes, I have considered it but in the meantime I keep my eye out for one that might work that is pre-built.
