Re: Back seat doggie deck

I made this deck for our dog out of scrap pieces I had around the house so it isn't real pretty on the bottom.
The first picture is the bottom side. It is made from 1/2" plywood. The 2x4** pieces are there to make the deck level with the front of the floor. The 1x2 pieces fit into the groove for the seat supports to locate it in place. The blue pieces are made from old sleeping pads that I used for carpet padding.
The second picture is the deck installed in the RL. I only made the deck to fit the 60% section as that was plenty of room for the dog. Leaving the other seat down and covered with a blanket gave him a place to sit up on when we were stopped. The floor in front of it gave us a spot to put his water dish so that it was not in his way and he didn't spill it. The rear window was always at least partly open because he loved to smell what was going on outside.

** Now that I remember, they were actually 2x6 pieces cut to the correct length. 2x4s on their side were too short.
