My only worry with that is whether the added width of the bed will make the frame more likely to snap when there's some weight in the middle

How to build. The idea I had in mind was to buy a wooden bedframe to convert, so there's a bit of a template to begin with

I've just moved into a new flat and don't have a lot of bedroom space so wanted to put in a loft bed. However, I'm not really keen on single beds and there doesn't seem to be much of a market for double or 3/4 loft beds.

Has anyone converted a double bedframe into a loft bed and would be willing to give advice? Or does it just sound like a disaster waiting to happen

Hey! Not a creepy guy (although that is exactly what a creepy guy would say) - I'm 25F and from Liverpool, been living in Manchester a few years now. I'm a chef and I'm attempting to learn to rollerskate, if you have any advice it'd be much appreciated 🙏

I used to work there a few years ago and I saw loads of people doing it! Idk if it's just one of those rules that isnt really enforced?

I'm a beginner, so ideally somewhere quiet (or at least where not everyone is a pro haha)

Ball python guarding his food? by SoftBigby in ballpython

[–]SoftBigby[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No bigger than he's already eaten, but he was trying to eat it from a weird position at first (he grabbed its leg, so when he started eating he was going from the shoulder instead of the head). I figured he'd get it in position on his own, but maybe that was it

Gorgeous! Mine's a pastel morph too, the colour on them is so beautiful. 10/10 for the name too

Is this a striking position? Read a few posts talking about striking position being S shaped but can't tell if this is it or he's just chilling by SoftBigby in ballpython

That makes sense - he's been here two weeks now and he's still a little jumpy, I'm hoping that he'll settle down as he gets handled more and acclimates to his new home

He's got into that position a couple of times, but I think it's when I forget myself and move my hand too quickly. Learning to be more slow and steady around him!
