[Sca-cooks] Airbed vs. Futon vs. Rope bed

I have a period rope bed design which is easy to build, very
portable, and easy to set up. Its one serious limitation is that it
is a one person bed; I think the design might require some
modification to work for two people, since they would tend to roll
together in the middle.
