I can't drill from the other side because I am drilling into 1" by 2m timber, and I only need to drill into it by 125mm, So I can get some furniture bolts in there.

Basically, I have something like this at the moment: But want something like this in the end: How would I go about doing that?

How difficult would it be to build a staircase one level above the existing staircase into the loft?

I have some timber which is 1 inch thick and need to drill a few holes length wise which are 150mm long by 13mm wide (diameter). How can I ensure the hole is straight and does not come out from the side of the timber?

Not sure what furniture connector bolts are. Do you mean doing something like this, so connect the legs with the side rails?

Taking this into consideration, Everything will cost me around £100! Thanks for the advice.

Make lots of changes and I got the cost down to £50.96 for the wood only, but it looks too thin/weak.

Yeah, you're not the first to notice that! :D Anyway. I have a question about chipboard. How weak is it? If I have 12mm chipboard on top of 34x34mm timber beams every 350mm underneath the chipboard, will the chipboard snap if a 100kg person stands on the chipboard between the 34x34mm...

I was thinking about using bedrail hangers, but if they are no good, any suggestions as I do not have the skills.

Having a laugh about? Anyway, I think the material will cost around£80

Thanks. Just a few questions 1. What type of timber would you recommend 2. Where should the timber be used 3. Where can I use cheap material (mdf/chipboard) 4. What dimensions for the legs would you recommend 5. What thickness should the timber be for the side rails 6. What are...

Trying to take your info onboard.

Yes, light would be good. How would I do that?

I have all the tools I need (I think). I do not have a saw, but I can get the material cut from B&Q.
