Way too heavy - 2x^'s are severe OVERKILL. Check out Torsion Box Construction. Also, why carry 'round the third row seats? They 1) add weight, and 2) consume precious cargo/storage space. HINGES: They are installed improperly. the rectangular end could be MORTISED into the edge of the two by six such that the long leaf would sit flush with the top edge(s) of your framework with the plywood flush with the hinge. if you glue your strips in line with the hinges, you should be able to screw into the doubled up are to secure the hinges. You could also add HFT Super Glue Gel to the hinge leaf and then screw them tight. Then, your 'cover' opens 'like a book.'
Live and learn right? Next time I know to use lighter wood and learn how to properly install hinges. Haha I kinda went by the seat of my pants, and apparently it’s obvious 😂 thanks for the tips! I left the 3rd row seats in because I only leave the bed in during summer. If I was doing a permanent bed, I would have striped the whole back, insulated, etc. I hope your having a wonderful day!
Way too harsh on a temporary build. Yes the wood is way overkill to only support her weight but the way you wrote her all this, was kind of in a rude fashion. Your comment is more of a direct order and demanding critique rather than a suggestion approach. She just showed what she did for her weekend outdoor camping adventures not to show us how to do a permanent build. She had fun and showed us that it's doable even in the Mini Minivan. Support her rather than preach her. Because this is what is clearly noticed with your comment.
U R doinf good Girl , keep going ........
