Not just me who mashes plastics stools then! After mashing our electric step on the threshold of a motorhome aire in greece, yes, handy raised steel bar, we used our cheepo chinese folding plastic thing. So, emerging from the van with a dish of yoghurt and fruit in each hand, i trod on the step which promptly gave way, dish contents flung into the air and mostly landing on my wife seated at table. beside the van!! No bones broken but extensive abrasions the bonus. Laundry to do....
 
I looked at fitting one of those to the self-build, but figured I'd forget it so I planned to put a microswitch on it somehow so it buzzed if out and ignition on, but we decided that we'd rarely get in and out of the SLD so never bought one.

I fell off the step to ours whilst at the @Scotia residence. I assume that is what happened as the step was tipped over when I came round and a half smoked cigarette next to me lying in the light snow. If it wasn't for my missus looking outside in the early hours I might have been there all night!

I blame Sam's beer, it's just so moreish!
 
I ran the first one over, and my wife stood on another one I'd "repaired" and it collapsed. Needless to say I'm not allowed to repair anymore steps and we are getting a "proper one not one of those !#@£* plastic things"

It was Wully who pit ye to bed, are ye sure he didny thump ye?
 
Back to the step I got a decent folding metal one on Amazon I copied Rubyken who copied Tim 120 that’s the way it works when somebody finds something decent on here I’ll try and find it.
 
Evening friends.
I'm actually looking for one that attaches (under) permanently to the vehicle......or I might leave/ run it over🤣
