Hi, Can you convert a bed frame into a waterbed frame? We have cherry wood furniture and are in the process of putting up a waterbed. If not, does anybody have plans for a waterbed frame or know where I could get some? Thanks, Trax
Before you commit to a waterbed, be sure your floor will support it. Memorize these facts: length x width x height =3D volume. Water weighs over 62 pounds per cubic foot. A 7' x 1' x 5' water bed will thus weigh over a ton. For waterbed plans consult the manufacturers of the bladders. They have a vested interest in seeing their products used correctly. Good luck.

: Charlie is right so your floor shouldn't be a problem. However, you could make it much easier for yourself by checking into getting a softsided waterbed. These are the waterbeds that are conventionally sized and look like a mattress and boxspring. With a softside you could simply replace your metal frame with a heavy duty 9 legged softside metal frame for your bed and be done with it.
