smart underbed storage

an impressive hack from bryan stuart, who tells me he loves hacking ikea.

“i made a storage bed made from an ikea dalselv bed frame. i cut the legs off the bed frame, attached some hinges and handles to what was left, built a box out of mdf, 2×2’s, pine trim and voila, a great storage solution.”
