Murphy bed done - Terry W - 04-17-2020

It doesn't qualify as fine woodworking but it was a nice distraction to the whole corona thing.
As a bonus, it also crossed off an item on my wife's wish list. The plans and lift kit both came from Rockler.

FYI, It might look like white melamine but it's all edge banded 3/4 ply and poplar trim.

Excellent. One of these is on my list too for when the grandkids stay over.

It looks great.  I bet it is going to make that room so much more functional than if there was a regular bed in there.  

I wish I could make my regular bed a Murphy.  No more making the bed in the mornings, etc. Sadly, my wife says no.

What's surprising is it took 6 sheets of 3/4 birch ply, plus a sheet of 1/4 ply to make.
