On the starboard side, the back of the port settee forms a short retaining wall in front of the bottom row of books, and this piece is hinged to fold down in order to access the books. The port side was not constructed this way, and we have spent the past year being annoyed whenever we try to pull our bins in and out of that storage spot. So jonny took the jig saw to it and used our remaining two sections of hinge scavenged from the old table to hinge it. A barrel latch will be installed on each end to secure it. Eventually I think we will build some shelves up in that space to better utilize it.
