Hey Guys and Gals

I started this thread to steer a conversation out of another thread. I hope other might also be able to add their
ideals to help jstrubberg’s and my design. As the topic states, Folding bench arrangement, sitting up in a TD, this
is for ideals for folding benches or folding headboard allowing a person to set up or at least lounge back on those raining days.

What you described in the other post sound like it might work. I can plan stuff out in my head pretty well. I’m just curious
about you facing the other way. I picture would be nice. That away others can weigh in on it.


My design is for a low rider Benroy TD. I will not have a Drop Floor section but will have a center cabin section that will rise
up. Something like 1FATGMC build years ago. I hope to make a Headboard / Bench combo for mine

This in the Bench up. The cushions / bedding is transparent and out lined in red.

This is bench down / headboard and small self

Here is another drop floor. mikeschn drew this up for another user.
I'll see if I can dig out some more drop floor, seating arrangements.

Murphy bed ... sleeper sofa Great ideal here. And a drawing of a beb / seat where you sit backward.

Don't know if this will help but this is my build journal.... viewtopic.php?f=50&t=39036 I used 2 folding seat frames out of an old van. With a drop floor it makes a real nice setup for bad weather. Might help!

Yes, yours is just about the one of the best seating area I have seen. Your log is in my bookmarks as one
to study and for later reference.
