  Thanks for the concern about making my own crash pad. I don’t think I will do that. The foam was open cell.

  The mattresses have a layer of polyester batting over the springs.

  You can also usually find mattresses on Craig’s list, maybe I was lucky but the ones I got were in fantastic shape. If I’m being good about it I wrap sheets around the short ends of the mattress so they are kinda “tied” together, and I imagine you could do a similar thing with some kind of elastic band…I was gonna say bungee cords but the metal would be not so nice to fall on. But like t blue said, they generally don’t move much

  I hadn’t thought about strapping them together. That’s a great idea. Thanks Lucca.
