Notes:
1) Underlined dimensions are those used to define shape. All
others are derived from these numbers
2) Designed to fit on top of an overcarped. If you don't have one of
these then you may want to change the height of the step

Notes:
1) It may be better to move the mounting slots to another (asymmetrical) position. This
would allow the middle seat to travel further back. Judge your requirements before cutting! If
you do this the bracket design will also need to be adjusted.

Notes:
1) Starting sizes are based on the Homebase range of spruce boards. They can cut in-store
(though if they get it right first time you have a better experience that I did!)

 Assembly
• I used peg and hole joints
– Getting a good jig makes these much easier and neater
• Drill and peg (don't glue) D to slides (pieces H and I)
• Follow by drilling and pegging pieces by G, C and E in that
order
• Drill and peg pieces A and F to sides and each other
• Finally piece B was dilled and pegged using pilot holes drilled
in from the back to mark positions of joints to A and E.
• Assemble using straps round cabinet to hold joints tight
• Test fit and mount brackets
• Glue when satisfied with fit!
• Reinfoce with screws if required
