So grateful I found your video because I’m trying to build a platform in my Chevy spark with my front passenger seat exactly the way you have it and will be using this video this weekend as a reference! Thank you! 🙏🏼
Just found this but thank you for all the specs and measurements building one later this week for my Crosstrek. Was looking for a platform design for my car and randomly found yours thanks to the UA-cam algorithm.
Fantastic! I am very happily this will work for you. I love this platform and it’s by far my favorite. Stay tuned for my next build which will be a new storage unit made specifically for pairing with the 88” sleeping platform. This storage unit will fit in the remaining space in the cargo area with the rear seats folded up. Thanks again for watching and commenting.
I am laughing through the whole video, you are one of the most casually and unintentionally(?) funny people I have listened to. Great video, amazing narration 👍👍😂
Thanks for watching and your kind words. Laughing is good and I do intentionally attempt to be funny when narrating. I speak two languages, English and Sarcasm. I am happy you enjoyed this episode and I am glad you didn’t comment about my glove wearing. Check out Ep. 29, you should get a good laugh or at least a smile.
In case someone else didn't say it, the correct pronunciation is "lu-on". A cheap mahogany from the Philippines. 40 years ago the logs where loaded abroad ship and the veneers produced during passage but I don't know if that is still the case.
You are welcome. This is by far my favorite platform of all the builds I have done. There is a ton of space. The fact that it folds up into the cargo area is a great bonus too.
Thank you for watching and commenting. I am planning some new builds in the near future as soon as it cools down a bit. I live in Texas and every day is a heat advisory.
😁 Thanks for watching and for commenting. I am happy it was helpful. Stay tuned for more builds. I will get back to it once it cools down here in Texas.
Agreed! I work in an industry that always promotes proper PPE and I need to make sure I promote this practice on my channel. In my next episode, I will make sure to wear safety glasses when using the saws. The gloves I might skip based on previous comments and the fact that I probably don’t need them so much for what I am doing. Thank you for watching and commenting.
Interesting build! I have a 2021 Crosstrek Sport that I camp and overland out of. I use a 4"x75"x25" foam mattress I got off Amazon .. Olee Tri-Fold memory foam mattress .. I use some old towels to fill in that small bump at the tray. I also have my cooking gear and the like in one 50 qt Plano plastic and my food in another. They both go outside when i'm stopped for the night. I found living in the car and being restricted by a storm for two days you want the maximum amount of 'Me' room as possible. 🤠
I am in the boat right now designing my bed platform in my little nissan sentra. Being 6'2 and 260 is challenging lol same idea as this as folding platform. Nice video should help out tons of folks!
I'm in a 2011 Forester. The front seats lay completely flat, level with the laid flat back seats. So one sheet of plywood does the job along with some sticks to acommodate with the front seat's back rest.. My plywood is only less than a half inch in thickness and I bet this would have done greatly too in your build, since your seperate pieces are only 24 inches wide and long. Would have made an even lighter package. These ways of making a sleeping platform are so much better and comfortable than the short ones in combination with the vertical back rests of the front seats 😁. I wonder if you'd be able to adjust the mount of the front seat a bit forward, if it would also lay more level flat with the back seats' back rests and make your build obsolete. This would lower the bed, leaving you with more headroom in the car.
Thanks for watching and for your helpful comments. Now that I have added a full size spare inside and raised the cargo floor I am going to build a new platform for two people again. I think something like you described would work well. Stay tuned.
Without gloves is not that big a deal safety wise. I do it all the time as gloves are cumbersome and can effect the feel you need a lot of the times. Nice ideas you have. I am making an 8 foot for my Crosstrek.
Gloves are a hindrance with a handsaw or drill/screwdriver. I pre-drill holes, that way wood doesn't split or splinter and no slippage putting in screws.
I giggled every time you started sawing without gloves 🤣. (I used a saw for the first time last week and it NEVER occurred to me to use gloves 🤣🤣) And you are so funny!
Gloves can get caught up in blades and other tools. It's safer to go without when using power tools. Gloves also give a false sense of security and can cause you to misjudge how close your meaty bits are to spinning steel. Also, no glove will not protect you from spinning steel. But gloves can save you from splinters, bruises, and busted knuckles when using hand tools. Don't apologize and always assess your own risk in each individual situation. No two scenarios are identical. Now eye protection, on the other hand... Eye pro is never optional. You only have two and docs aren't great at replacing them yet. Take good care of them and they'll get you through until the end. Safety first, ho-oah.
All you gotta do is write to Robie, and they'll send you another base. Give them the model number and everything. And they'll send you a new base one time
Thank you for watching and commenting. Remind me what base you’re referencing regarding the base. Is Robie a typo, is it Ryobi? Did I mention an issue with one of my tools? Thank you for your help and suggestions.
Hi! thanks for sharing this great build. just wanted to share REI makes a "Trailgate Vehicle Sleeping Platform." How do you think an off the shelf product like this might stack up against the custom build? Would the REI platform fit in the Crosstrek?
Thanks for watching and commenting. Yes, REI has done a fantastic job with that “Tailgate Vehicle Sleeping Platform.” It should fit fine in the Crosstrek. You might have to rig something towards the front. You could just make a brace like I did for my platform. The only issue for me is that it’s not long enough. I am 6’ 3” and you also need room for a pillow which is why I made that folding platform so long. Honestly, it could be a bit shorter. I just wanted to see how long I could make it. If it’s long enough for you, I would just buy that REI platform. If you’re a member, you will get 10% back in dividends. You don’t need the 40” wide one. The 25” one is one inch wider then my build and that’s plenty of room. Stay tuned for more builds once it gets a little cooler down here in Texas.
Thank you for watching and for the comments. Please email me at: carcampingwithcarson@gmail.com Include your height and some pictures showing the inside of your car with the rear seats down. Send multiple different pictures from different perspectives. I think I might know someone who drives a Toyota Camry. If so, I would love to do a build. I will be on the lookout for your email.
You’re the third person to comment on the gloves. I find it interesting as well because I never gave it any thought until everyone began bringing it to light. My father is a carpenter and he never wears gloves and I never wore them either helping him throughout my adolescence and into adulthood. I only ever remember putting on a pair when conducting demo when there were dramatically sharp objects like glass or all plaster and tile with that metal mesh. I put them on during a time when I was slipping a lot with the screwdriver and stabbing myself in the fingers. Every time it happened again, I would think I should be wearing gloves and I guess it stuck. Funny thing is I don’t wear them all the time. I do still wear a glove on my left hand when steadying a screw. On my next build I won’t wear them and I will do my best to keep it up. Minus the glove on my left hand while using the screwdriver. Thanks for watching and commenting. I hope the build was enjoyable and it helped in some way.
Thanks for watching and commenting. In Episode 30, I show the use of this platform with the smaller built cargo box which holds my food and I put my clothing in a bag which fits inside the folded platform. Keep in mind, I typically only do overnight trips. In Episode 26, I pair the folding platform with the built 48” drawer which has more than enough room for all the things you mentioned. In my next episode, I will work on a new platform for added cargo for longer trips so stay tuned. It’s just been so hot lately that I haven’t felt like building anything.
@@creationsbycarson Understand re. the heat. I just found this channel tonight so haven't watched all of them. Overnight only makes sense you don't have tons of stowage. I'll look for more. Thanks for your quick response.
Thanks for watching and commenting. The head section is stable and straight. There might be some sort of flex in the wood itself, but I don’t notice it while sleeping.
I hear you and these days there are a lot of options for air mattresses. I would just need to find one long enough and I could go that route. Thanks for watching and commenting. Stay tuned for more builds. I am going to look into an air mattress option or combination now.
You are 100% correct! For drilling in screws, handling rough items, and using a hand saw they are great, but they could most definitely be a hazard when working in other scenarios. Your referenced story is awful and I am so sorry this happened to your Father. Was he able to have it reattached? Either way, I am sorry that happened, but appreciate the cautionary tale as it’s reality. Real-life-experiences like this one should be shared with others. Thank you for watching and commenting.
Not sure where to begin. There was a stent in my builds when I was wearing gloves. Not sure why I was doing it or why people cared. I have since broken the habit.😎
Thanks for watching and commenting. I love a good challenge and I enjoyed this build very much. I also understand your perspective. For me, being able to install this platform in seconds seems more efficient in the long run. In all my builds I like to keep the car as intact as possible as I use it as a people carrier 99% of the time. Thanks again for reaching out.
Thank you for watching and commenting. I was not aware of a similar option for tall individuals. Please share the link to what you’re referencing. I am always interested in learning about other options. Thanks again.
Why would you saw with gloves? What is your thinking behind gloves? If you look at a real carpenter tell me how many do you see with gloves? Maybe I’m old but gloves take away dexterity and feeling. So someone that is inexperienced would be in more danger of getting hurt with gloves on. Just saying I’ve been a mechanic and welder for 30+ years even did iron working. Only used gloves for certain jobs. But I’m from the days of real men doin real work.
LOL! Love it! This is a great question. Come to think of it, my Dad who is a seasoned carpenter NEVER wore gloves. I worked with him throughout my younger years and I only ever wore gloves when we were doing demo. I think I started to wear them in my builds because I have slipped with the drill, Dremel, and hand saw enough that having a pair of gloves on has prevented small but annoying injuries and kept me from getting splinters. You’re right about dexterity, as I always seem to take them off when using the sharpie. I am also not consistent, but will give it more thought on future builds. Keep the comments coming and thanks again for watching my videos.
I don’t know why I put them on. Haha! Lots of people have made similar comments. I never really thought about it. But I don’t wear them anymore. I did make a video about it. Wearing Gloves Too Much Ep. 29 ua-cam.com/video/efrgS1wC8fo/v-deo.html
Thanks for watching and for commenting. Several people have chimed in on the glove wearing. I won’t go down memory lane like I did with the other guy, but you’re right about the blood, sweat, and tears. I put all of that into my builds. There was a time when I kept slipping with the screw driver and stabbing my fingers. It was more annoying than painful. That’s why I definitely wear one glove on my left hand when steadying a screw. I guess I just kept wearing them after that and never gave it much thought. Maybe I won’t wear them on the next build. Thanks again for watching. I hope you enjoyed the build.
wearing gloves to saw or screwdrive? Seriously? How woke is the USA becoming? I bet the pioneers didn't wear gloves when they tamed the west. Nice build.
Thank you for watching and commenting. I never gave that much thought plus I coat everything with that Poly-stain which might not be good for me either. No issues yet. I will take this into consideration on the next build. What wood do you suggest that doesn’t produce an off-gassing potential?
I would suggest any wood for indoor use (with natural colors). Keep in mind that Home Depot refuses to cut chemically treated woods (greenish looking) inside the store, so it shows how potential harmful it can be if breathed in. I also wasn't sure about the strength of the head piece which doesn't have a dedicated support leg toward the front. But in general folding bed is a great idea, perfected by legs of different heights to make it leveled! I enjoyed watching your build process.
One of the best and probs cheapest methods great job 👏

The brace over the front seat to lengthen the bed is ingenious.
😁 Thanks for watching and for commenting. I am happy it was helpful. Stay tuned for more builds. I will get back to it once it cools down here in Texas.
I don't normally wear gloves, but safety glasses are an absolute must. At the minimum sunglasses when using power tools.
