Queen to twin conversion

Finally got around to doing the conversion. Not real hard but time consuming. Obviously, nothing in an AS is square and you certainly can't use a level. In making the change, for woodwork that is visible (except the night stand top) I re-used the existing queen base, making changes as necessary. The front of the nightstand drawer was the door of the original nightstand which was originally installed vertically. I used the front and made a new carcass. AS of Arkansas (GMorris here) installed a rear storage access door so I could have plenty of outside storage (they did a great job). I already had the small storage access door on the street side. I opted not to install a curbside storage access door as I wanted more inside drawer depth on the curb side. You can see that in the pictures which I hope are attached.

Great job, I like the additional storage. Thanks for posting, I'm always looking for new ideas to plagiarize.

Good Job

It was a time consuming job wasn't it...we did the same thing, almost. We kept the extra storage inside and suspended the night stand so the dog could sleep under it.

Again, a good job. It looks cool.

Professional looking job. Very well done. I have twins in my 25'Classic but may convert the drop down door with the slide out plastic bins to an actual slide out drawer mounted on a quality set of ball bearing drawer slides.
