want to build my own bed. where can I buy a coil system in a box?
| I am finding that the materials for a beckley and other handmades are not very expensive, and I would like to construct my own bed using wool batting, latex and a cuddle bed to top it. I need to find a high support pocket coil system in a box and some natural form of fire retardant. I know that several of you have done mattress surgery. Hoping you have some suggestions, as I do not trust the coil systems in the commercial mattresses and cannot get info on them in any case. wondering if leggett and platt would sell it to me retail. any ideas? thanks |

Just saw this post...the cotton batting I've seen used in beds is the second picture...and there is plenty of it, inches and inches, tho I did not measure. First springs, then insulator layer(s)...wire mesh/burlap, the cotton, then foam...usually glued I think... Kait |
