    About:
    Jason and Lorraine. In 2016 we sold most of our belongings and left the city in southern California to start a small homestead in the mountains of North Carolina. We left the city in search for a more minimal and intentional life. We became passionate about growing our own food and knowing what exactly is in our food after I (Jason) became diagnosed with cancer. Now 8 years in remission we as a family are on a journey to live our passions.
    We document our life on RUclips videos to inspire others to get out of their comfort zone and not be afraid of change. We started our own online general store where we have available the things we make and use in real life. Thank you for following us on this incredible life changing journey!

    Jason, Your video is the most complete ‘start-to-finish video on how to build a project. You might not know this, but for people like me, it is a real treasure to watch. Nothing frustrates me more than for a video to begin a demonstration and then just leap over critical steps! Grrrrr! Anyway, you did great and thanks so much for sharing your skill. If you have time, could you think over a design for building a trundle bed for a bus?

      I have this and made it the same way but the problem I ran into is that if someone is still in the bed you can't easily slide it or access anything from below without disturbing them ie; having them get off the bed. I later changed the design from the cabinet style front panel to an open frame design that can be covered with a cloth material with easier access.

  • @lightlyone
    @lightlyone 3 года назад

    Well done! Enjoyed the simplicity of construction of the bed, and the way you left it open (and hinged) inside for storage, which is so important in campers. The handhold holes I thought were simply an elegant way of enabling gripping it for pullout.

    Great video! You always do quality work. My parents had an Airstream for years. My dad said that is the easiest pulling trailer out there because it is so aerodynamic. I’ve pulled it before & it was a breeze. We borrowed it & took it on a camping trip & our friends kept calling it the Silver Twinkie. Hugs from Fort Worth, Texas.

      @xenedraabourque1393 4 года назад +2

      Drawers take up more space that can be used. Easier to lift up and have hide-able storage. My dad did this but not as a bed but as a bench in his van when I was around 7 years old ever since then I've loved the storage under me...

    Such a great idea. I was searching for a way to convert a window seat into a twin bed for guests. I'm building in the country and when friends visit I'm sure some won't want to drive all the way back to the city. So this is an extra bed without bunking. This gives me a lovely window seat in the guest bedroom with storage and a twin bed in addition to the queen in the guest room. The added benefit is that the only thing I need to put in the closet is the remaining cushion to fill the gap once pulled out. Thank you so much!!! I've sketched out the plan and will start once the home is built. Breaking ground in 2 weeks!!!

    Thanks for sharing this. I saw this in someone's cargo trailer-turned camper and wanted to build it but couldn't find a 'how to' video so this is great and I also saw it in the bus conversation you worked on. I wondered why they didn't make the pull out wider. The storage is important too in tiny spaces.
