Do you want to make the frame for the slats collapsible, or the frame on which that frame will sit collapsible?
There's one frame in my mind. Like any other bed frame.
I don’t think I’d trust the former. Why not make it non-collapsible but install another set of mounting rails up by the roof so you can slide it away when not in use?
You wouldn't trust the strength of the alu, you mean? Why? Seems to be used to build some pretty impressive stuff, and I've seen it used in other vans.
I have no idea what you mean about mounting rails on the roof. But as I mentioned, I don't want to do anything complex. I want a basic bed to start.
