  • I am currently constructing a bed from aluminium extrusion, I'll post some pics when done.

  • Ah, nice! Very keen to see how it goes. Are you doing something a bit more complicated than just a frame? I keep putting this off. Need to get on it.

  • No, just a frame. I have a centre section and two other sections that will slide out from either end.

    The red and green sections slide out.

  • I am about 90% finished now.

    I found a mattress in Ikea that is almost perfect, the only problem is that it does not fold very well over the back of the chair when folded up. I may have to split it.

    I used 40x40 extrusion because I had a load of it lying around. If I was buying from scartch I would go for 30x30.

    Thinking about buying the cover for the mattress which would tidy it up when in seat configuration.
