HANGING BED. How to make a bed that hangs from a ceiling. Making a swinging bed.

What happens here

Take each of the four manila rope segments (or cut four equal lengths from the 55-foot rope, ensuring enough length for desired bed height and knots). At one end of each rope, create an eye splice. An eye splice involves unraveling the rope's strands, forming a loop, and then weaving the ends of the strands back into the main body of the rope. This creates a strong, permanent loop. This method is demonstrated as a 'pro tip' for a durable and professional finish.

Goal: Form secure eye splices at one end of each manila rope segment to create loops for hanging.
