A while back before one of the crashes, someone posted pictures of a cot that I believe was in the museum at Wilson's Creek. This person had pictures of the original plus of one he produced off that original. It had a rope (hemp) bed and the frame seemed to be wood that was just under the size of 2x4s. I/m looking for those pictures and if possible that person's contact. If anyone can help I'd be greatly appreciated.
