Hi All This is what I’ve been meaning..the fold out walls YES! How can this be done simply in a tiny house ??how did they do it??PLease let me know.

I worked for a folding house company in Fullerton CA called Transa Structures and applied the principle to mobile homes that were manufactured by Great Lakes and Mayflower Homes in California. I was 17 and had run away from my NM home at 16. Then, weeks after going to work for Mayflower I quit and invented the first double-wide mobile home and built a prototype in Long Beach CA. Everybody poo-pood the idea but I’d made my mark. Today I build with metal framing and integral high-tech concrete. It’s cheap, fast and stronger than anything else.
Hi Tony,
This was exactly what i wanted to do. Is it possible to have some more detailed photos to understand the foldable system..it would be very appreciated. Or any link/website that could help for a better understanding.
Thank you
