Thank you, Bill! Someone up in Missouri offered me one of those beds and I wish I could make the trip to grab it. Hopefully I can find one closer to home, but it doesn't look too hard to fabricate something that looks like it. I have access to a bunch of rectangular tubing that I could pie cut at the ends to make correct-looking spars.

Me either! I am still trying to figure out where I'm going to put this thing when it leaves my friend's shop. Little details!
