![]() ![]() ![]() If things all work out, the 60x75 bed will drop from the ceiling, intact (i.e., no folding), hung from a Thule storage lift (a setup that helps lift rooftop storage coffins to the ceiling of your garage). but that design will require one or more center beams of 1020, makes the whole thing thicker.Ĭlick to expand.I hear you - all that stuff could be valuable. Using just 8020, i know i can build what i need if i give myself 2" for the platform, using vertically-oriented 1020 to control deflection with 1010 in between to provide enough support for thin (probably wooden) bed slats. the platform edges can be taller, since they can form a tray around the mattress without affecting the height of the mattress top. the bed will be lifted the the ceiling when not in use, so keeping the platform as thin as possible is a high-level goal. The alternative is to use 80/20 stuff for the whole platform. I'm weighing the pros/cons of building a single-piece 60"x75" bed platform using these as a starting point, probably with 80/20 1020 beams (positioned on edge) along all 4 platform edges. I'll make a trip to the local outlet to check it out myself if no one knows, but does anyone happen to have the true dimensions of those three panels? by which i mean thickness, end-to-end length (not including the hooks etc at the top end), and rung-to-rung spacing? I know several folks have used this ATV ramp from H-F as a basis for their bed platforms: ![]()
