[QUOTE="Tony Eeds, post: 692435, member: 32023"] Eric: I am getting ready to fab something similar myself. Let's see if I can explain it. On the right side of the trailer I am mounting a fold down plywood platform with a 3 inch foam pad. It will have a set of aluminum legs similar to the photo you referenced. It will pivot on a piano hinge mounted 6 inches from the wall. When in the up position, it will leave a 3 inch gap between the wall and the pad, which will be filled by .... a loose pad and plywood combo that will be set on a cleat along the left wall. It will also have fold down legs. I am planning to leave about 12~18 inches between the beds (I have a 7 foot wide Pace trailer). Make sense? I have chosen this route as I have internal wheel wells and am also working on fabricating a way to haul bikes in the trailer at an angle like MX-727 and Tcarp has theirs laid out. Mine will have to rise up over the wheelwells in a to be determined manner. :laugh: The beds will be slightly above the level of these ramp thingies. I figure that the compression of the foam will hold it secure in the up (or closed) position as long as I have 2 or 3 screen doors latches along the length of the bed. I am planning on making mine about the width of a cot and wrapping the foam with some ultra sheek naugahide. I will sleep in a sleeping bag on the bench/bed ... [/QUOTE]
