  • This wood framed DIY sofa made from 2x10s is simple and durable, with a modern style. It can be built around almost any sofa cushions you might have or even a single mattress if you want it to double as a daybed. I salvaged some cushions from an ikea sofa whose frame had broken. Pile pillows along the sturdy, solid-wood sides and back to make this a perfect daybed for a couple to lounge on.

    This looks pretty cool . The possibilities. you can add a couple of drawers under there for extra storage and maybe a piece of 2×4 as an armrest for the sofa.

    Many thanks for this it was perfect for my 14 year olds attic bedroom nothing prebuilt will go up the stairs so I built it in place another bonus is my tools live up there already so it was a win win I have since built a ply box and a base board and it now houses a mattress and he has a new bed built to his 6ft 4" frame again many thanks.

    the top board you cut in half to make a mini arm rest or a place for a soda.. neat idea. might make one for the front porch.

    Any alternatives to using a biscuit joiner?
    maybe drill holes and use wood rods? if you think thats a good alternative, would you happen to know what would a good max depth and max diameter to prevent breaking?

      @malloryakikonoramiller973 8 років тому

      +Alexis Solorzano The wood will be joined more sturdily if you use multiple small dowels along the same plane! (like group 2 next together instead of a biscuit joint).

    @Blober112 9 років тому +8

    A thing you never mentioned but should have because you did follow it would be to make sure you reverse the grains with the boards that you biscuit (or any joint) together. Looking at the ends of the timbers you need to find which way the grain is bending. If it's rolling up to make a U shape then the one next to it has to be the opposite, and alternate between these. This way the natural grain of the timbers won't work together to curve the length you just created

      Will power is the main ingredient. I started with harbor freight tools and flea markets. Cheap tools but works. Once you grow and more knowledgeable with tools and kinds of wood, then it's worth getting better tools. Plus with cheap tools you can find out if it's for you and not out off alot money. . Lots might not feel the same but this is my 2 cents. Hope it helps.

  • @wdfwgagyfgagyga
    @wdfwgagyfgagyga 9 років тому

    Tip for those who never used a biscuit jointer: put glue in the hole not on the biscuit.
    if you do the biscuit will suck up the glue and expand thus making it harder to put it in the hole.

  • @foxxgreen1993

    Question: I want to build this identical sofa but 10 feet long. The bottom gram is easy. I can add more feet to support it. How can I make the back strong enough so when people sit in it and lean back it is still strong in the mid section?

    If you install hinges instead of glueing the sides, you may also have a bed sofa with no extra work (4 hinges).

  • @AyanaSioux
    @AyanaSioux 7 років тому +1

    This is great, but the only issue I've noticed with these diy sofas is they're they're never upholstered with a spring of some sort which to me, makes for a less comfortable couch. From my experience, any seat made without coils aren't as comfortable because they have no give. It seems impossible to find a detailed video on a sofa built this way.
