This is the drop down bed I constructed in the cab of my self-build Iveco Daily motorhome. The bed is for my 18 month old daughter. The bed wasn't quite finished for this photo and now has a guard across the front to stop her rolling out and will also have a safety net to stop her climbing out. The bed is raised and lowered by a system of rigging made out of 3mm paracord 550 line. There is quite a bit of friction in it as I'm using nylon fairleads to guide the rope and not pulley blocks. There is one hidden 2:1 pulley block enclosed in the left side to reduce the effort needed to lift it.
