Great progress! Maybe I missed it but do you plan to add some ventilation in the ply of the sofa seats/lids? I know it's not a fixed bed so maybe ventilation isn't so important, but to avoid that potential maintenance down the line it might help to add some extra holes or slots now?

@nicroams Жыл бұрын

At the moment we aren’t planning to, we didn’t add hole ventilation to our corner sofa in the van we live in and it’s been perfectly fine for over a year 🤗

Nice job I had same issue with stiff sliders on my bed came across a video where they said to put washers between the fixed slats and the beams on your fixed framed just to lift it up to stop the slider slats from biting hope that makes sense I’m nearly finished my rebuild and already want to build another.

@nicroams Жыл бұрын

Thank you for the tip 🫶🏼. I’ve read it about 5 times and think I’m grasping it 😂. May I ask, where the washers would be located on the frame? I’m very much a visual learner 😊 Congratulations too! They’re so addictive aren’t they 😆

@benfinch467 Жыл бұрын

Sorry comment was clear as mud so between the top of the bed frame studs and the bottom of the slats but only on the fixed slats not on the sliding ones. It creates a little gap and stops it binding up when closed fully and open fully. 😅

@benfinch467 Жыл бұрын

It’s bit fiddly getting the washer in place so screw goes through the hole but it does make it glide nice and smooth

What’s the bit you are using inbetween the bit and the drill?

They are countersink drill bits, honestly, worth it so you don’t have to keep changing bits 😊 These are the ones we have amzn.to/3KXfFwz
