    stunning, where did he find the plans/hardware for it?
    I think the plans were from Rockler - if that is different I will post it. The springs he ordered online. If you want to know the name I can ask him = just PM me so I don't forget.

    Most of all, How do you get the bed out and do the doors and drawers open or pull out? I've never seen one like that.
    Thank you

    You pull down on the drawer pulls to open it. The drawers and cupboards are just decorative. This one opens sideways, because if it opened long ways it would hit our ceiling fan.

    Fantastic. That would really work well at my house. Too bad you are on the other side of the country, might would have to see about having one made.

    Just got the info from DH - he got the plans and hardware from www.murphybed.com. He used Luan wood. Yep - don't know that that is either!
