Built the rear bed today

What stinks is now the bed is a lot higher than it used to be(I put the 2x4's right over the cargo door hole). The sconce outlet is WAY too low so it is now a no go. I guess I will get some retro...

Looks good Pete! I have to figure out the sliding back sofa/bed in the Shasta-nothing left there. All pictures are welcome, I need ideas! Which wall is the Sconce on? Is there any way to move the...

Thanks, I'm thinking of making it just an outlet. The sconce is a combination lamp/outlet with the outlet on the bottom. If I put the sconce on the wall where the wire is it would be only about a foot...

View ArticleRe: Built the rear bed today
I didn't have the hinge installed yet in that picture. This is an earlier Scotty rebuild, but shows the hinge installed. On this one I used two 30" piano hinges because they didn't have a 72" one...

Thanks Charles! My Loliner had a sliding plywood section in the middle, riding on an aluminum edge. There was a side box on either side to support the bed; very sturdy. Is yours similar?...

My popup has the configuration you are talking about (pretty much) for the gaucho. I'll look at it, get some pictures if you need (generally scrounge around). Yes, my LoLiner is just as you...
