Pause or scrub to any position. The sequence is a conceptual explanation, not a verified packing or clearance simulation.

Concept model. Member sizes, folding clearances and joint travel are illustrative.

01

The backbone stays inside.

The bottom panel and its spine arrive as one assembly.

02

Ribs meet at guided joints.

Shaped ends align. Spaced locking pins hold the connection.

03

Feet connect through a wide frame.

Forked brackets spread loads between the spine, lower rib and paired legs.
