Nope but there are plenty free plans out there on the interweb so save yourself £7 and google for them.

i am told an old hospital bed is a good start

You know i saw a hospital bed not long ago lying somewhere and i cant remember where (not a hospital)

My advice? don't bother. Look in Classic Bike, SAL Easylift, SAL Home or call Barry 07973 286810. He will do one for £290 inc delivery. He advertises in the reconditioning section. Having said that I made mine for free from stout wood and sterling board but I do have to load by ramp which my son or neighbour helps with. A bike bench revolutionises maintenance, I also use a stool when the bike is not on the bench. Both methods don't 'arf save your back.
