Has anyone made a headboard for cpap users?

Question

I’ve seen pictures on Pinterest but the company doesn’t make them for the US. It’s very basically a wooden headboard but there are shelves sideways (not in front). Things go in and the shelves slide out when needed and slide back when not.

I think it would be a similar method as making this kind of space-specific sliding cabinet- http://www.hometalk.com/diy/organize/pantry/hide-away-pantry-kitchen-storage-24927536

You want to be careful with a c-pap as the do produce a significant amount of electro-magnetic radiation and according to my tester should a t three feet away from your head unless you have a good radiation shield?... that you know works??

Just attach a shelf either to the wall behind the headboard or wall lower than the top of the head board. It is a great place to put a box of tissues, basket with remotes, or clutter from your nightstands. All it costs is the price of the shelf.

Although this doesn't slide out, it might be a start for adding drawer glides to a low sided drawer.

Custom cabinet maker could do this. Shouldn't be very expensive either. Simple basics...oblong box with shelving unit that rolls out, on tracks or not.

You would need to line the cabinet area with something to cover the radiation exposure and to allow for the moisture and a shelf so you can have the sanitizer unit nearby or locate the in master bath . there are spare supplies that need stored as well so a lot of this could go in a carpet lined drawer under the bed with extension tubing up over headboard to rest the tubing onto,check with yr machines company about efficiency with the length of turbo

Ing and condensation in the tubing.

I have had mine for that long and if i would not have seen the test myself i would not have believed it? Low levels of radiation can do a lot of damage. Thats why you can pick it up with a simple sensitive tester, I am saying be careful i was sleeping with that thing less than 10 inches from my head and the clearly showed that 24-30 greatly decreased the amount of radiation so be careful and stay on the safe side. some people can handle even very low levels better that others but it hard to know if you one of those? so do not take chances is what i am saying...

If you don't have the booklet that came with the cpap, then you could contact the company for the specs on the distance needed between you and the cpap.
