Need to know egg bench height

I have finally started rebuilding my missing dinette. I managed to get the bottom frame done, but now I need to know how high I should make the bench. So anyone with an egg, please weigh in.

Normally there’s a lip of fiberglass protruding from the wall to support the back edge of the bench. Is there any evidence of something like that?

Mine’s stored at our cabin, so I don’t have immediate access. My recollection is around 13” or so.

I can see where the rivets once were.

First time I made a chair, I was shocked at how uncomfortable it was, so I found a comfortable chair and took the measurements from it, was surprised by how far off my measurements were. So you are constrained by the trailer, but measure some comfy seats and try to get as close as you can to the measurements, given where the seats have to go.

I am sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. The benches in my PlayMor II are 14" tall with an offset for the table to rest in when in the down position that is 3/4" below the top surface. They are identical to the ones that came out of my Boler which I sold as we built a permanent bed. We have since rebuilt the bed to be a u-shaped dinette as well. I would have kept the original fiberglass pieces but I had no where to store them. Hope the measurements works for you. Again sorry for the delay but I have been working a lot and preparing our camper for an upcoming trip in a couple of weeks.
