So what do you suggest me do I need to place sheet over the slats because I own a mattress not a memory foam. As far as the sagging issue, I don't think I would be worry about that much and I normally flip my mattress once in a month to keep it in a good shape.
@@gameotic1 You would either need to get a box spring for the mattress or flip it monthly like you said. I wouldn’t put it on plywood as it needs to breathe.
@@melindahernandez8778 lf you have a regular mattress on slats the only suggestion l have is to use a box spring under the mattress instead of slats as a box spring allows airflow through. Hope this helps!
Why 2 pieces? Why not 1? It seems logical 1 solid piece would have greater structure stability? Maybe It doesn't matter, or I'm over thinking it maybe? Great video as well.
The gap at the end of my frame is under 3 inches & it was because l didn’t want to notch around the frames legs, you don’t have to leave a gap if you cut the plywood a bit bigger and notch the corners.
How is it getting on? Pro and cons. Did you notice any presence of mould under the mattress? Thickness of the board? Have you pretreat the plywood? Thanks.
The plywood is holding up very well. No mold whatsoever under mattress. No treatment on plywood, I bought the sanded pine plywood. Sometimes the bed creaks a bit when getting up which may be prevented by using a heavier thicker plywood than the 3/8" I used. Thanks for watching!
You could do this without the screws as long as the plywood is supported well on all edges and corners. You may want to use thicker plywood though to prevent noise.
Yes you could do that but the memory foam doesn’t need airflow like a standard mattress. I did this 1/2 a year ago & the underside of the memory foam still looks new.
