    Disassemble Bed

    Really this is one of those things you either post a ton of photos or realistically you break it down into as few pieces as possible, you might find you only need to detach the panel down by the foot end, then the rest can be moved out of the room temporarily.

    Engine lifting beam In workshop

    Seems like a reasonable solution. Though I would always favour a folding engine hoist on wheels.

    Loft dormer structural detail help

    Well I don't know what it is you're asking or what you have now. SE's won't be interested in digesting your fag packet memoirs, they want to look at drawings or sketches at least, a loft conversion is really right down the bottom of what an SE wants to be doing so you'll have to spoon feed them...
