Just wanted to share the sleeping platform/drawer I put together in my 60. All base & drawer were assembled with 3/4”plywood and the top is 1/2”. Not sure if the piano hinge is gonna last, but I’m happy with how the front supports came out with conduit and clamps.

nicely done, looks very serviceable. re: the hinges, may i suggest using 4 or 5 door hinges thru bolted with machine screws rather than trusting the 1/2" #6 at most wood screws to hold in 1/2" ply . that's just my 50yrs plus as a carpenter talking. that conduit support dealio is a very simple solution. nicely executed

Thank you! I don’t love the piano hinge, but we will see how it holds up. I like the door hinge idea 👍🏻
