Time to finished off the bed build that I started earlier last summer.
Last summer when I finished the aluminum adjustable bed frames camping season started and I threw some scrap plywood I had onto the frames and secured them with ratchet straps. This setup got us through the summer but with winter here It's time to finish it off before hitting the open road once again.
Here's a shot of the bed frames in the van with the temporary plywood installed.
And the bare frames.
With the frames removed I took them into the shop to sketch out the measurements for the top boards.
With the quick sketch in hand I headed down to the store to snag a couple sheets of 1/2" Baltic Bertch Plywood.
Next stop was to visit my buddy Mike at VanLab, Mike is an up-fitter and has a commercial CNC router that made quick work of cutting out the bed frame tops. Thanks Mike!
Transferring the drawings to cad.
