enough to hold thousands of pounds per bed lifter. Made from a solid grade one 6x6, Douglas fir solid core with trim at the
top to create the recessed area for the furniture legs. Base of the bed lifter is
very stable, given that the base width is the same as the lift height. Note: A 6x6 true dimension is 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches.

is 1300 to 1700 pounds per square inch. Confirm this with an engineer if you wish.

beds.
