If we talk about comfort, it’s not bad for our plank bed with adjustable backrest and castors. Of course, you can change the shape a little, step-by-step photos show how the structure is made. In principle, the scheme is the same, only add wheels for transportation.

Then you will need to calculate the height of the wheels and drill a hole in the back of the legs at a distance that is equal to the same distance as in the bottom of the wheel to the axis of the hole. note that the hole should be slightly larger in diameterthan the axis you are using. So, they don’t spoil the view, but it’s more convenient to use.
