"There are people who make things happen, there are people who watch things happen, and there are people who wonder what happened. To be successful, you need to be a person who makes things happen." -- Jim Lovell
(Apropos of nothing in particular. I just like this quote. )
Superman has built another bed. This one is for Light, and I have a part of it, too. While Light is away at college I use her room as an office and place to study. Her bed is the top surface, my office is the portion below the platform.
Here's my area.
This is the ceiling of my office.
Superman is a design engineer. He designs things to stay where he puts them and do what they are supposed to do. This platform bed is supposed to be very stable, and here are his initial cross beam supports.
Here I have moved my stuff into my new office, and there is another support piece.
This is a better shot of my desk. Things have been rearranged a bit since this picture was taken.
Superman has another structural piece there behind the bookshelf. That is a large piece of plywood keeping the thing even more stable.
Why use one screw when three will do? He uses screws instead of nails in almost everything he builds because they are stronger, and easier to remove if he wants to take the structure apart. He's a very thorough fellow.
