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.

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.
