Heres more info as requested on upper bunk shelf;

The shelf is made of standard 16" wide closet wire shelf rack. Its "L" shaped
with a 2" back lip like this |______ I used cable to attach the shelf to the
pop-top but you could use any strong thin rope/twine. Attach the cable to the
top inside of the pop-top side where there is a thick lip. You'll see what I
mean when you look at it. Drill pilot holes and use sheet metal screws and
washers. It can be made removable by just making loops on the cable/twine etc
to hang onto the screws. It kinda looks like this;

                        : = wire cable  o = screw point
