We have an rv king in our MH. We are going down to a rv queen so we have room to easily make the bed. Right now it’s a real pain every morning.
Add a support that is even and only covers the new mattress width. It should not be uneven under the mattress. Use good 2x4 supports at each end. The slide has your modified support on it. Making an even support just for the additional width is the right way to go.
Thanks for the suggestion and for watching
Always use a finer blade to cut so your cut is smoother.
Absolutely Loving Ben’s “Can Do” mod warrior attitude. I also agree, the more mods you make, the more confident you get and know what you’re capable of.
💯 thanks for watching!
We used a vinyl fence post as a support below the foot of the full queen.
Good idea!
Congrats on 200k!🎉
Thank you!!🎉 we appreciate your support!
Piano hinge all the way across, piece of plywood only the width of what you need. Attach the hints to the base not the top. Make sure”L” shaped leg supports that kick out. Kinda like how a wall table would work.
Good idea, thanks for sharing and for watching
I had the same thought about the hinges and add a piano hinge to the wood to make a false door to hide the gummies!
Next time, put the cabinet piece upside down and make your measurement. If it doesn’t fit in the space, use a yardstick or something similar to extend the point of measurement.
Thank you. Your kids are getting so grown. 😮...
Great job guys. I enjoy watching the way you handle different projects. 💯
Funny stuff 😂. Thanks again.
👋😉
I think you’re going to be surprised how over a short time, that osb is going to transfer through the mattress and you’ll feel an anomaly when you lay down. Once possible, you should consider another way to create a completely even surface for the mattress to lay over, once you’re situated somewhere to fully invest the time.
Thanks for the suggestion and for watching
It turned out nice. I did the same conversion in my first RV and it worked out well.
Good to hear!
We put cheap peel & stick floor tiles on the plywood platform. Helps the Mattress to slide and not get caught on the plywood.
Nice
I would use 2 aluminum stripes from Home Depot and cut your board to edge of bed and I would attach it to the left side so you can still open the bed for more support might want to add a small removable leg to it. Less weight. Just an idea.
Thanks for the idea!
Chipboard will not last. Humidity and weight on it, especially the edge of where you would sit while getting up, will break. How they make shelves and countertops with a laminate surface would help keep out humidity and provide a good solid surface. Use something like that to replace the entire piece that lifts up. Not sure if the original hinge would work. Maybe?
Yes, anything more than about a two inch overhang will flex and crack over time.
Of course pieces you need break and the useless decor is crazy sturdy!😂😂😂😂
Lol😂 love it
Reciprocating saw for the win! 😃 Charity - I'm on a 3-week journey back from Virginia to Longwood beginning tomorrow. Picked up some "Digest-It" toilet chemicals at Walmart tonight. Thanks for that video!!
Thanks for watching and safe travels!
My first thought is…no room to make up that huge bed😅
Pretty much, it’s now an exercise in gymnastics 😜
Love the mod. Makes me want a king bed in our class a
Hey, it just be possible!
Because every RV needs a secret compartment for gummies!
💯
If you like gummies try chocolate covered gummies you’ll love them!
Are you sure it's gummies you're trying to hide from the kids??? Next to the bed??? 😉🙈🙉🙊
Definitely round off the corner a bit that will hurt.😢
Think about having triangle supports down the length of the bed allowing plywood to rest on top of the supports
Thanks for the suggestion and for watching
Your idea of cutting the one down that was in there is my thought.
👍
We’ll take your old mattress 😂
😂
@@GratefulGlamper we still have the factory mattress- you know how bad they are
Im wondering if that piece you removed can be cut slimmer to fit but not as wide or deep
Good question, thanks for watching
There's no need to cut the corner, just move inward.
What do you use for the shade on front window?
We have a roller shade from Home Depot
Just make a box our of 1x2 and throw some osb on top
Thanks for the suggestion
We have an Rv king in our bedroom in our house it is really hard to find bed sheets
We got our sheets from Rvmattress.com and well and they fit great!
What are you going to do with the RV queen that you just took out.
We upgraded the spare room mattress at the Glamper Hideaway.
That’s what i would do. Just screw that board to the other one.
👍
👍🏻🇺🇲
KUTGW
What about weight ?
We added very little weight (most of it being the actual mattress).
