Hi Javier,

Details in this post, it's pretty basic, hopefully you can improve on it. I researched the disc-o-beds too, but width was an issue for us also.

Kids must be out playing...all is as it should be!

Thanks David,

I was just hoping to see a better pic of how you rigged the cot to the E-track but I think I have already come up with a solution of my own. Now I just have to order the parts I need.

Thanks!

What a great build! And I see by your photo gallery that you've been making the camping rounds.
Is the Serta couch in the tow vehicle?? And did your "handle", NO, David! come from that delightful children's picture book? Love it!

Thanks TDN!

The camping rounds pics built a "what did you do with your trailer today?" thread...(which BC_Explorer easily won the day, and put British Columbia on my permanent to do list) hey, now I see you dropped in to that thread, small world.

The "click clack" couch is in the front of the trailer, in this picture, hiding under a blanket...reclines out to a flat bed.


As far as the children's book? No! (I mean Yes, one of our all time favorites as well)

@ Rchr, I realized the picture in the thread wasn't too good, here's a better shot of my poorly-designed (but functional) mount:

Awesome! Thanks for the picture.

Unfortunately today I called to enquire about those cots & the person I talked to told me that the shipping to me here in Texas would be $50.00 ea. So there goes that option.
On the bright side, I think that I could probably make some cots very similar to those for about the same original amount.

Have them put them on a single pallet and ship them LTL, (less than truckload) via lowest cost freight line. I imagine UPS rates would be oversize and therefore expensive.

If you don't have access to a commercial delivery dock address, you could probably arrange to meet the truck and offload somewhere convenient.
Shouldn't cost over $ 100 freight for all 4.

Good luck

[Rchr]

I'll look into it. Thanks
