Said 500#  CI tub does not all bear on the cantilevered bed end-say only
1/2 extends past the metal body, which can easily bear the load, the actual
weight of the load on the end of the bed is only 250# +--that is the same
as a 250# person standing on the end of the bed to get something out of the
upper bunk area?
I think it can I think it can!

YMMV,

Mr. BZ
