    Overhead frame in place

    I have got my forward overhead-frame in place. I used hinges from a window. Perfect. Very easy to do maintainance now. The overhead frame folds down to a complete vertical angle

    That's ingenious Ivar.

    It reminds me of the folding mechanism fror those pull-down attic steps you can but at the Lowes stre, minus the tension springs.

    Well, that would probably wake me up It would definitely hit me where I am thickest. Just between my ears

    I just need to attach a couple of "smart" screws or something at the back to keep it secure in place, and still make it easy to fold down. Something Twist and lock system maybe.

    Thanks for your comments
