futon sofa

A few years ago I built an oak futon sofa. It is primarily used as a sofa, but can fold out as a
twin sized bed. The material used on this project was quarter sawn white oak. This was a great
build that turned out every bit as nice as I could have hoped, and looks great in the living room.
