Quilted Maple Murphy Bed
Made with sequenced bookmatched popcorn size, blistered quilted maple veneer. All interiors are maple plywood with a natural clear finish. Contains a small walk in closet on the left side. The stereo and TV are consealed behind two vertically sliding frosted glass doors which have the old fashion sash weight system to allow one person to effertlessly control the doors vertical movement. The 3/4″ thick by 10″ by 12″ steel weights used were designed to move silently within a 1″ wide chase provided right next to the sliding door behind a veneered vertical column. A simple yet precise movement occurs when the framed glass door is perfectly equalled in the weight of the steel counter weight. To open or close the door you grip the maple frame at the base and because it is practically weightless it will stop on a dime where ever want and stay there. All parts including nylon ball bearing pulleys, clear plastic coated strainded steel cable, were trial tested at the factory to assure a smooth and silent operation before the fabrication process was completed.
