My love of my life (now my husband who found me 30 yrs after we met) and I have 888 - 8 of each - kids, grands & brothers and God willing we will retire on our favorite island. You can imagine the guests we will have & I think I will make several of these. BTW - you use particle board, not plywood in your pics - any reason? In our termite/wood lice, tropical area we would have to use treated ply. And, due to the fact we already have a brass daybed trundle that is always knicking our legs by its sharp corners - I think I will round the corners a bit. Thank you so much for your inspiring blog. I have pinned you.dianahttp://pinterest.com/z0rr00/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592342156309750688.post-24307411643468386692012-07-31T18:52:09.906-07:002012-07-31T18:52:09.906-07:00I love the idea, but until I get some more of thei...I love the idea, but until I get some more of their stuff tamed down, one of them would never be able to get their bed out to sleep in!MrsSmithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02182310113216695923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592342156309750688.post-18694575963841333272012-07-16T19:03:38.708-07:002012-07-16T19:03:38.708-07:00I had this same idea, but I was going to spend $80...I had this same idea, but I was going to spend $80+ on a "roll a way" frame, why not make it myself with plywwo dans casters.

Different casters may still be worth a try.

I have tried to figure out what to do instead of bunk beds for my boys. I am going to do this right a way. I told my husband about it and he loves it. Real quick question is does the bedding stay in place when you slide the bed under and also where did you get bedding that doesn't hang down so far. My boys have twin bedding and it still hangs past the matress.Heileson Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11833160795672803637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592342156309750688.post-49985493645279132322012-03-21T10:59:06.039-07:002012-03-21T10:59:06.039-07:00We made a trundle for my then two-year-old last ye...We made a trundle for my then two-year-old last year for a crib mattress.
