Wood Veneer Dinette Bench

As promised, I have started to produce a prototype of the dinette bench that is used in the 22, 25, and 28' International CCD. As stated before, the difference between my prototype bench is that my bench will be covered in wood veneer rather than the laminate that is used by Airstream. The weight of my bench will be approximately 1 to 2 pounds more than Airstream's and I don't think that anyone would ever have an issue with that.

We are now two days into the project and I have posed three pictures to the photo gallery. Picture #1 shows the mold that is used to bend the wood that is needed to make the bench. Picture #2 shows a piece of wood that is actually being bent and picture #3 shows several boards fused together after being bent. The bench will be able to hold 400 lbs. I think that is more than enough.

I'll be sure to update the photo site with more pictures as we make more progress each day.

My goal is to have the bench finished in the next week.
