I've been doing a lot of painting of furniture and cabinets lately (refinishing furniture and painting and installing kitchen cabinets at our farm) after years of doing more natural finishes. I've learned a lot about what paints work well and which ones don't in terms of durability so if you want any tips, let me know. I've sprayed a lot of them, but also do some brushing/rolling. I have experience with regular latex from various companies, PPG Breakthrough, SW pro-classic Acryilic, General Finishes paints and topcoats, various chalk paints, etc... Murphy beds won't take a lot of abuse, unless there's a desk involved so you probably don't need anything too extravagant.
Thanks. I'll check out Rockler. I've been looking on Amazon, but hard to really tell what is good and what isn't. Let me know how you like the Rockler hw. Rockler is usually a pretty good company.
I saw these guys designs and like them a lot, although I wasn't planning on doing one that extravagant, but I like a lot of their design features.

I HIGHLY recommend it if you can afford it. Not only is it safe, it's a fantastic saw (at least the cabinet saw is). Safety features aside, I like it better than my powermatic. After years of woodworking, there are only a couple of tools I would never skimp on, and the table saw is #1 on the list.
