Dinette Dimensions

[smily]

I am ready to build a dinette for my Airstream.
Does anyone have a dinette that they could provide some dimensions on?

I am looking for the following info:

1. Bench height, ( to the hard surface not the cushion)
2. table width and length
3. width of the dinette both directions
4. cushion thickness
5. height at back of benches, (the highest part of the dinette)

Thanks,

Just having transformed my dinette into a couch, I took about every dimension during the planning process:

Width of seat frame and cushion 38”
Depth of seat 23”
Total depth at top of seat cushion 24”
Height top of seat base 15 ½”
Kick height 2 7/8”
Kick depth 2 1/2"
Seat cushion thickness 4”
Height of top of seat cushion 19 ½”
Depth of back frame 5”
Depth of back cushion 8”
Height to top of table 30 ¾”
Table leg length 30”
Table width 26”
Table length 36 ½”
Table area 949 sq in less rounded corners

If you have the room, go for at least a 44" wide dinette which will seat two persons comfortably wide by side with some elbow room. The 38" dinette is mighty snug for two adults trying to eat.

Just a thought, when I built a new Dinette table I chose to make it a about 4" narrower and I cut the outside corners off to aid in getting in and out of the booth. I found that the table was too large for easy access.
We have used the table many times and the smaller size is a great feature.
The smaller size requires that you cut and carry boards for the opening if you choose to use it as a bed, but this has not presented a problem either.
