    Wow! Even my 14- year- old son was interested in this video!
    I especially liked the simple and effective bed rail bracket secured against the wall. I think this would work very well for the horizontal bed I want to install in my future build.

      Happy to hear you and your son liked it and that I could give you some ideas for your future bed build!

    Hey bud, keep making content. I have used your fold down bed plan in my home. I bolted aluminum together and made my bed frame together. My box spring fits nicely in there. Thanks for the idea . I'd love to see you do one in your home ....

    Well done. Very simple hinge like design. 👍 But it shows what my 12 year old daughter would say.... definitely using Big Brain.

    The thicker angle iron would been perfect for legs on ends of bed, since they could fold into frame being same shape angle

    @photofermata 3 месяца назад +1

    A great and elegant design to do this. I noticed you had another person to help with moving the end of the bed into the locked position. Is it easily manageable for one person to do this?

    • @BCBackwaters
      @BCBackwaters  3 месяца назад +1

      A little bit of back and forth with one person but definitely manageable. I would say if it is difficult for someone I would suggest adding a hand crank on the wall for support.

    Hi , brilliant Murphy style bed ( talented or what) . I do prefer the rise n fall bed though ( could you use counterweights to pull that system up- down ?love to see you do a video on that ). 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    Excellent custom bed build. Isn’t it necessary to drill holes in the plywood base for moisture control to help prevent mold?

    • @BCBackwaters
      @BCBackwaters  10 месяцев назад

      Depending on the depth with the box spring and the roof height? If you are using your trailer to haul anything I would say don’t use a box spring. Just my suggestion

      Good question it really depends on your situation as my rear board is a bit bigger due to the rear of the trailer being a ramp
