<......> Does anyone know where I can get plans for a bunk bed? I don't want to pay a lot and I prefer an arrangement where the bottom bunk sticks out into the room (only partially under the top bunk and looks like an L from the top view). While I'm asking, does anyone have recommendations for plans for children's wooden toys? Thanks in advance. Jennie Cottrell

In addition, there are usually several advertisments for plans of various sorts (including toys). I have ordered several sets and generally found them to be useful. The November issue Workbench usually has a section on toys. If you have difficulty finding the magazine, here is their address.

It generaly can be found in the display racks at plant/garden stores. Ortho Books 575 Market Street San Francisco, CA 94105 Re: bunk beds. I have built 3 sets of bunk beds (all for neighbors) using a plan out of Reader's Digest book enititled Complete Do-it-yourself Manual. It is a large yellow hardbound book. The beds are made from 2 x 4's and 2 x 6's primarily, but looks quite nice when done. The lower bed does not project like the trundle bed that described, but the plans may give you a few ideas.
