Re: Wood bed floor option years?

Thank you for the all of the information, I'm a little curious how this is possible though, is the wood ontop of the steel, and the edging around the tubs is a separate piece of metal?

If not, attempting to cut out a steel floor, and trim around the tubs and everything evenly around would seem like a mess, but I would have to have it perfect, or it would bug me.

I didnt catch that at first. So its edging all the way around, and there is steel under it, or it it just like a normal bed, but cut out a few inches in?
