Best explanation I have seen for a slat bed, simply superb! Thank you. Equalize height of slats to any existing fixed bed portion. Groove in the sliding section frame to move more freely on wood rail. Washer to create clearance on moving slats but not fixed slats. Flip all slats with smooth edge facing mattress so no snags. Round out sharp edges of slats. Chamfer the edges of the moving slat close to wall so they glide on top of the fixed rail support. Small gap between every slat so they move freely and mattress has good air flow (no mold). Cut legs of moving side a sliver shorter so they move easily. Bed must pass Black Cat Inspection Team! A most delightful video! Loved the Black Cat who looks like my beloved cat Lucifer who passed away a few years ago. And I really liked your detailed explanation. It is the small details that hamper each project. Subscribed. Now I have to figure out how to make the top slats hinge upwards so I can inspect my water tank below, without removing the bed entirely.

Great slide out and great craftsmanship. I would have placed a piano hinge at the wall end only screwed to the fixed pieces of lumber. That would allow me to open the top to access storage space below. Also, I would have pre drilled the holes in the lumber to avoid cracking.

Worked great but after it spent the night in the van and it rained outside, the wood swelled a touch and became very hard to pull apart (even with the washer trick). Applied some paste wax to the parts that meet and presto, slides in and out perfectly. Thanks Mel!

Like everyone else I vote this the best bed- building video ever! Especially love that you built it IN PLACE. Also am able to see the exact placement and size of the frame pieces. Ready to buy some wood! Thank you tons. Or tonnes?!

G Day Stan thanks for taking the time to comment I’m glad my video has helped you out I have some aging relatives who live near Gold Coast I have so many happy memories from my time spent there i recently heard it’s no longer aloud to sleep in a camper on the streets can you tell me if this is true as I’m really hoping to gat back to QlD and get a camper project underway soon as I can afford to? I’ve asked my uncle there but he hasn’t got a clue lol would be great to stay in touch with someone there that knows the crack so if you’re interested in staying in touch I’d really appreciate it my email is melpettipher@msn.com Look forward to hearing back from you 👍🍻👍

Of course! Just completed the bed this week, and delighted with the result; had to watch your video a few times! Not due to lack of clarity on your part, rather due to mine. Thank you, thank you, thank you so much again. All the best from Tarifa, Spain.
