I really liked your modification of adding the gas springs under the bed to enable easy access to the storage below. Could you please share with me the details of what you did so I can do pretty much the identical mod. What thickness of plywood? What gas spring? If you don't have the model, how long is the gas spring and what weight rating, what other specs do I need to know to order something similar? Does the bed stay up by itself? It looks like it does, how is that accomplished? Is that just the force setting on the gas spring? Does that mean you need a way to hold the bed down? Does the bed rattle and make noise? Any suggestions you might off me?
