Why the deadline rush? I always tried to have a extra day before I had to make a delivery to allow for problems that pop up. That way you have some time to fix them, and if there are no problems, then you can prepare your tools and truck, think thru the job and plan for any problems that may arise there. Its less stressful and gives you a breather. Good luck on your delivery and set up.

Nice save Ken. (I've always slept double in a "full" size bed. But a lot of military housing can be on the less roomy side, so a queen really congested the room and a king was really out of the question. I think the difference between a full and queen is only 6 inches, so you would still be out of clearance.)
@rupe53Ай бұрын
I feel that part of the answer is making the kitchen sink into a bathroom sized sink, then maybe making the whole house a foot or two longer. Also, making that single bed into a pair of bunk beds to gain floor space.

New subscriber here, in north Texas. I wanted to say that the little house looks amazing and your trouble shooting skills and attitude are beyond incredible! I know what you did with the mattress was on a time schedule and you didn't have time to order anything and wait for it to be delivered, but next time you might want to look into the RV mattresses that are available online. You can order various sizes with the corners already notched out and bedding etc. So next time you build one like this, it's something to consider.

Finally got to see this. Oops, major flaw in design? I like the sliding drawers you're going to build! Rats, only 11 inches between the wood stove and the corner of the Murphy bed. So sad. I never noticed this. So you're going to do this on each end of the Murphy bed. It makes sense that you'll be able to walk by the bed to the bathroom now. So sad this had to be done. I'm glad you got this figured out before you delivered it. I hope these adjustments go easily so you can deliver the tiny house on time. I like the fill-ins you made. I think a reading light in there would be a great idea. Nice job putting the polyurethane on the new wood. Nice mattress! I hope you made your delivery time okay. Thanks for this video Ken!

It is done now but I was always wondering about putting a queen size bed in a space that size at all. Seems a full size would be more appropriate. I think it would have been faster and easier just to shrink the frame down to that of a full size mattress. That way the owners could decide if they want an innerspring mattress some time in the future. I hope you and Dan had a good trip.
