Very easy way to put on or remove a fitted sheet from a mattress in a camper or other tight space.
Although I made this out of 1/4 inch paneling I don't see any reason it wouldn't work just as well if made from a heavy piece of cardboard box such as a mattress or refrigerator is delivered in. You could just cut it out with a straight edge and a utility knife. Hope this helps out those that want to use this idea but don't have access to woodworking tools.

This is pure GENIUS!! Both the head and one side of our bed are against the walls. Making the bed feels like I'm losing a wrestling match. 😂 We will be copying this trick immediately. Thank you!!

I cannot express how much this changes my camper experience! I cannot wait to do this! I may also try this with my duvet cover to keep the bottom tucked in! (We have a camper bed, and the foot of the bed faces our entrance, messy beds make me crazy, now I can make a great bed.) Thank you!

Yes I was amazed myself at how easy and well this works after I came up with the idea after struggling for 10 years with other ways of putting on the fitted sheet. That is why I felt I should share the idea on KZfaq.

I forgot to mention in the video that I also put a piece of paneling like this in the top end of the mattress cover. That makes it easy to put on the mattress cover and keeps it in place. So when both the mattress cover and sheet are in place there are two of these this boards at the head end of the mattress.

I have thought of making them to order but I think the shipping would get expensive. I just enjoy helping others out so am happy that my idea has helped so many . Another suggestion: for those interested. I think you could easily make one of these from a heavy piece of cardboard from a mattress or appliance box.

If you make one of these out of cardboard and find that it is not stiff enough you could glue some long thin strips of wood to it. The home supply stores sell these strips quite reasonably. I believe they are called lattice strips.

Thanks for the compliment. Let us know how that works out with 2 pieces of wood in a corner. I am thinking it might help to put a hinge in the corner, and then drape the two sides of the sheet around that corner and slide it into place.

Good going! I believe all people should sleep alone, Im too fidgity.. I get up every 4 hours. Twin beds in the RV. At home I have an antique 3/4 bed. I sleep on top of cotton quilts (fitted sheets underneath for mattress protection) and under cotton quilts. In the RV sleeping bag! Great vid. I just subscribed.

On your mattress, since it has walls on 3 sides, you may want to cut the piece of paneling to fit the long side of the mattress and put it on the far side of the mattress next to the wall.

This is cool. We just slide the mattress down away from the front wall of our camper, make the bed, then slide it back up because we have about 3 feet of space between the bottom of our mattress and the kitchen counter. :)

@buckboard43

I don't have a simple answer to your question. So I will give you a brief life history. I grew up on a farm where we raised grain and cattle. I have always been curious and as a child pestered my elders with questions about everything. I always enjoyed building and fixing things around the farm. I worked as an agricultural loan officer for over 20 years. That was not a real good fit for my personality and abilities. But the pay was decent. Personal computers came into use during my last ten years in lending work and I developed an interest in fixing them. Depression has also been a problem for me for most of my life. Because of the depression I had to leave my work in lending and was on disability for a couple of years. A telephone call center opened up near by that was providing telephone technical support for a line on personal computers. I applied there and was hired on. So I spent the last ten years of my working career doing telephone technical support. I also was in the Army for 3 years, worked as a service representative for a farm equipment manufacturer for 2 years and tried selling farm silos for 2 years. It was a varied and interesting working life. Since retiring, my wife and I have been able to travel a good bit of the USA and Canada in our travel trailer.

What are the dimensions of the wood paneling?
@buckboard43
@buckboard43 3 жыл бұрын
That would depend on the dimensions of your mattress. As I mention in the video, the piece of paneling should be a little shorter in length than the width of your mattress and about as wide as your mattress is deep. The exact dimensions are not real important. Hope that helps. Ask again if I can help further.

I just pull the mattress down to the foot of the bed, slide the head corners down over that end, push the mattress back into place and do the foot. I don't have time or energy to mess around with a piece of wood.
@buckboard43
@buckboard43 2 жыл бұрын
That works fine if you have the room to pull the mattress down. This idea is to help in the situation where there is not enough room to pull the mattress down so that you can easily reach the head end of it.
