    Thanks for watching lovely beings!
    This is definitely not a tutorial as I am sooo not qualified to do so. But I can still post the measurements here in case it will help anyone!
    Total Length:
    To longest part of the "U" shape : 75.5 In.
    To shorter sides of the "U" shape : 70 In.
    Width: 45.5 In.
    Hinge length : 18.5 In.
    Hope this helps and hope you enjoyed my fun video about the process!
    P.S. I am back from my camping trip and it was such a success! Stay tuned and subscribe to see my next video :)

      Hey! Quick question, did you guys just use the form pads for a mattress or would a twin mattress be able to fit? Thanks!

    • @LivandCreate
      @LivandCreate  3 роки тому +1

      Jeremy Young we just used the foam we bought from Lowe’s and stacked a full size memory foam mattress topper on top. It was I little tight for the fit but squeezed in nicely. So I think a twin would fit but not if it’s extra long. :)

    Awesome build Except for not upholstering those two bottom pieces separately that was definitely a okay but it will work I know I'm picky picky but being in the Upholstery and antique restoring business for 45 years I'm just that way LOL

    I may be wrong but isn't that a tent set up on the rooftop already?

    I don’t want to sound negative, but that sheet will make both people in the front seat instant paraplegics should you get rear-ended, even at relatively low speed. I don’t know about your vehicle registration laws but a car like that would be defected by authorities where I live. Surely you could come up with a design that would collapse in the middle in the event of a car accident?
    On a positive note, the video is fun and well made.

    Working in flip flops is a great way to amputate a tow when you're tight on money.
