- Get additional storage space;
- Properly "fit" our mess in the interior.
Take 2 EXPEDIT shelving, Sizes 44 * 39 * 185 see. Then you must purchase timber for the manufacture of wooden frame. Frame Dimensions will depend on the size of your bed. The frame should be slightly above the racks, laid horizontally, as the top of the frame will be fixed platform - a sheet of plywood. All fasteners are made with nails.
When the platform (base) is ready, you will need to make it upholstery. For this purpose, suitable felt / felts, thus mattress will not slip on the surface of the plywood. The most convenient way is to strengthen the upholstery furniture using staples. All that's left to do is to install shelves EXPEDIT on both sides of the frame. The design turned out quite stable and reliable.
Note that the structure on one side will have something to cover or beat.
