Default Single step to the TM bed

As promised, here is the step I just installed in my 2720SL. It's 3/4" plywood, about 2 feet square, with a piece of cheap carpet stapled to it for (the dog's) traction. Support on the left, per Yoda's design, is the middle drawer. Support on the right is two pieces of 1-by-3 red oak, with angle brackets at both ends. The vertical support is screwed to the bathroom wall from inside the bathroom (I discarded the Velcro idea).
It's a single step, about 18 inches above the floor--adequate for the dog's use, and, augmented by our folding stool, for humans as well. It's plenty strong for us, and the step stores easily in the wardrobe or anywhere else that has a 2-foot space.
