Hello there, I wonder if anyone would be able to give me some advice please. I have just bought a creighton Binns Comfort, I'm used to the lay out of conways and I'm not sure what the lay out of the seating, cooker/sink unit should look like? Does anyboy have a picture of a Comfort interior I could have a look at or any instructions (happy to pay for a copy) It has an awning that looks like brand new but I'm not sure how it fixe on the front of the Comfort. Should there be any roof liners or bedroom compartmets? I'm also unsure whether it is 4 berth (2 end beds) or 6 berth as there seems to be extra boards in the cupboards. I would really appreciate any advice members might have. Thank You

Hi Heyjudex.  Welcome to the world of Creighton Binns's!    I would love to see some external shots and it would be goood to keep it as close to original as possible.  Be prepared for much interest and many questions when you use it,  

I am proud owner of one of (if not the)   smallest of the CB creations which I tow with the motorbike.  It always attracts a lot of attention wherever it goes.  There should be a Creighton Binns appreciation society,

Hi Classic

I did get your e-mail asking me what advice I needed and I replied also sending some more pics of the outside of my camper, I wasn't sure if you got that e-mail though? At the weekend I managed to fathom how to put the awning up and took some pictures of that, I've taken the canvas off the tent now as I'd like to reinforce the canvas in the corners where the bars are to prevent wear and tear before it happens! There seems to be a funny combination of electrics in mine, there is a mains hook up with 3 funny flat sockets on cable around the trailer, to plug lamps in I assume, there is also wiring 12v to fix to a leisure battery in the cupboard, needless to say my dad will be checking all that out for me, I haven't got a clue Let me know if you recieved my big list of questions and if not I will send them again, Thanks Jude

your camper is a 6 berth , 2 beds at each end and the dinning area converts into another 2 berths by using the dinning table a second table and the cushions rearranged

it has a built in kitchen (2 burner stove with grill + sink&drainer)

most had a foot pump for water

most came with an porch awning (ours has one) I think that yours has a full one which is rare

the extra boards that you found should fit into some slots that are in the ends of the beds

(they stop your head or feet going through the canvas when your in bed)

I think that we may set up up a web site for these very clever folding campers

were not sure what we'll be doing with our Binns as we may be downsizing to a Combi camp (Citroen 2cv Towcar)

it would make a very good project and would make an excellent camper for a family
