Finished Bed (with old mattress)
My new (queen-sized) mattress is on a freight truck as I type this, so alas I'm stuck with my old full-sized mattress, which obviously doesn't fit the bed. But otherwise, the bed is complete. Easily disassembles and packs down nice and small (six 2x8s, two sheets of plywood, and two hinged pieces of edging) and I can move it into other room corners and just move the edging around to different sides and configurations. Success! Total bed budget: $150.
