I made my own mattress from 2" memory foam and did my own measurements (measure once, twice, three times, then cut etc.). Turned out not to be hard. Use a Stanley knife or sharp modelling knife (sharp blade is the key) and steel straight edge for cutting and cut through using several light strokes. Put wood underneath so blade doesn't cut carpet or blunt on concrete etc.

Use kingsize foam and get full width double depth memory foam pillow from the offcut.
