I have a basement that its almost tall enough to stand up in. It has a concrete floor that I would like to turn into a kindof "bed" surface so I can hold meetings in it where everyone sits on the floor. Any ideas for material to do this with? The room is about 12*18 and I'd like to do it as cheap as possible.
Thanks for you help Austin
4 ideas :-
Foam, with canvas streched over the top. Futons Martial Arts practice mats Cheep quits from asda/tesco/woolies

Whoohooo! A dungeon with a giant bed :-)
I won't ask what sort of meetings you hold where you you need a room-sized bed.... ;-)
mattresses. But why not make it a bit deeper? There is a minimal cost way to do it.

Go back to Woodstock, ya flower-loving, tree-hugging hippie!
Room size bed down in the cellar? Whay-hay! "Meetings" my arse!
Nor shall I.
But when do we get our invitations?
Straw!

Ah. Is there room for the other 12 and the cauldron?
I assume you will need good heating as well :-)
In teh old hippy days I have seen this done with no more than loads of old carpet, over almost anything. Futons are a good bet.
Mattresses are a pain to walk on, but futins are OK.
Best to build a slatted platform with air circ. underneath to avoid mould underneath the futons.

"Something between a Mister and a mattress, dear"
Why not make a 'ball pit' a-la IKEA!
Would Rockwool be any good for this?
Old pallets? Would reduce the headroom though.
Ask your local asian community, they have suitable floorings in various religious buildings, and in Eastleigh were found to be sleeping in shifts on the whole first floor on one house and all the communicating roof spaces above the rest of the row (terraced housing).

I grew up in Eastleigh, my home town. Still go there occasionally to see the outlaws.
I wasn't aware that Eastleigh had any sort of ghetto community. Without being too specific may I ask which part was found to have this problem?
