Easy DIY Queen Size Bed Frame Build with Wooden Legs
Вставка

- In this video I show you how to make a Queen Sized Bed Frame with wooden legs. This is a very sturdy frame made from normal lumber. If you are going to be using a foam style mattress without box springs then you can follow along with the cuts that are made in the video with 15 slats. If you are going to use a boxspring then you only need 6 to 7 slats to hold up the boxsprings. I built this bed for $150 but prices may vary depending on where you live. Shopping Big box stores are good if you need them to make the cuts for a small cost.
You will need a few materials to complete this project:
7 = 2x6x8 boards
4 to 8 = 2x4x10 boards (depends on slats)
2 = 2x4x8 boards
2" screws
3" screws
Final cuts:
Legs 18@12"
Sides- 2@80.5"
Head/foot- 2@63.5"
Base-3@83.5"
Slats-7 to 15@59.25"

The board cuts for a Full Size Bed are:
2 @ 74.5" for Sides
2 @ 57.5" for Head and Foot
2 @ 77.5" for two runners
8 to 12 @ 53.25" for slats.
Cuts for a twin bed:
2@ 74.5" sides
2@ 42.5" head/foot
2@ 77.5" runners

Thank you very much! This was a great video! I followed it and just built my mom a new frame using wood I found around the cottage. I made some wonky cuts, I am sure. Also possible some of my wood is warped. It's incredibly sturdy. She wanted the side panel half the size for ease of rolling in and out of bed. It was my first proper carpentry project. I rented a circular saw and went for it. Super easy video to follow!! Nice!!!!!
Good job, I've built two of these very similar in the last two years. One thing I did differently was to make it easier (lighter) to move at some time, was don't screw the slats down. Instead I screwed 2" block spacers on the bottom support rail, then the slats fit in between without sliding around. Then you can easily lighten the frames for moving. I made them for my daughter and granddaughter who plan on moving sometime in the future.
Thank you again for this build using the metal pipes legs. I made it for my son whose heavier than me and he loves it. Still holding up and going strong. I’ll built 3 so far. 1 King and 2 Queen size beds. Thanks again.
Great video. Easy to follow instructions.
I built this yesterday. Even with the ridiculous wood prices only cost about 150.00 Cdn. It took me a couple of hours. Its solid as a rock. I added felt pads to the bottom of the legs because I have hard wood in my room. Makes it super easy to move around.
150 is all this cost you ? Even for the 2x6
Very wonderful sir...
Am from india...
Your furniture is very strong and durable
Great video! I'm in the process of buying a house and was hoping to upgrade my bed as cheaply as possible. Your instructions are very clear and concise, and it gives me a lot more confidence that I can actually build this on my own (unlike some of the other videos I've watched on the same subject). Thanks so much!
This is a very sturdy bed frame. And you can build it in an afternoon. All it really needs is a drill and a saw. And you can actually have the home store make the cuts for you
Thanks. I may make one, but make the legs high enough to put larger boxes under the bed.
It is a great space for storage!
Excellent build... Ill start mine this weekend!
I just bought 'my dear saw' haha, I been planning one of these for years, I think I'm going to do it ! I have a LED tape light, and motion detector, so when getting out of bed. My feet touch the floor, the lights come on! Saving power from turning larger lights on in mid night, after you turn one on, you have to turn more on to see!
just made this for my new home :) appreciate your simple instructions
Great Video. Very detailed and helpful.
Make a stop and butt the piece upto it to cut them all with out having to make measurements every time you cut
This is a good bed
great easy to follow/ easy to do tutorial! Best i've seen so far
Thank you. This frame is easy to build and plenty strong. Pre 2020 it was also affordable.
I build you older one that has the iron legs and also the head board. I made mine all by myself.
Nice! That one is a great solid frame. A lot of people asked for the wooden leg version.
Great Work i think its better to use L metal support for legs so if you slide the bed legs dont broke...⚘
Good idea. The 9 legs do also help with that.
Loved the frame simple and to the point, now can we make it look like a floating bed by moving bed legs inside and any advice on how to add headboard
muito bem feita e reforçada manda uma aqui pra Santo André sp
Great job.
Thank you!
I think you need atleast 5 legs, the one in center, is at the weakest spot,
Nice work, thanks!
Ik darn well a 500 lbs not sleeping on a queen size bed 😮
You sir have earned my comment, like, & subscribe less than halfway through this video. Love your precision and presentation. Keep up the awesome 👌 work you do. Much respect. Got here somehow looking for a solution for protecting my toes from the foot of my bed 😊
Thank you. I have used the king frame version of this bed for several years. It has worked very well!
Great job buddy thanks
At the beginning of your video you instruct everybody it was very important to wear glasses ear protection being safe as I was continuing to watching the video I noticed you would not worry your safety glasses and your ear protection there's a lot of people looking up to you LOL
For the cuts I had on the hearing protection for sure. :)
12" strips of plywood will work, as long as they are screwed on the ends, with a 4" gap, 1x4's will work also, if screwed on the ends, using 3/4" pipe for legs, with a cap, and bulk head flange, would be nice also, the pipe cap can be drilled and tapped for screw in rubber feet, for hard flooring,
Am interested to learn wood work
Great video man ... When it’s time for me to add a new bed, I’m building one! Ha I just imagine what something similar would cost retail vs building it. Straight forward project .. the pilot holes are a good idea. Did you put one coat of stain or two?
Building your own is definitely a lot cheaper. I used a single coat of stain .
Why not use a stop block on your miter saw?
In your description you have the slat cuts at 59.25 but in the video you cut them at 59.75. The 59.75 is the correct measurement??? Right? Making this bed today ..... help!
Why not buy a 4x4x12 or 2 4x4x6 boards to use as legs(requiring a lot less work and fewer pieces to cut+screw)?
In my area there are no untreated 4x4s. Some places sell them. Here i had to use 2x4 material and sandwich together to get 4x4 not treated.
What! No dovetails or mortise and tenon?
You may have mentioned it, but what kind of drill do you use for the screws? Impact? Hammer? Regular power?
When you started to say, "you may be thinking", you lost me.
But here we are right?
wonderfulll
Thank you.
Very heavy an strong can build for my self but cant sale becuz customer dont like very heavy bed
What measurement would you suggest for a full size bed instead?
Hey Seth!
Hopefully you or someone with better knowledge than I can respond from this.
For someone that does not have FLOWING water has anyone considered using a water siphon hydro generator to generate power and then use as many ram pumps as needed to replace the water back up to the source?? is this possible??
The power calculation is:
(Head pressure x gpm) / 10=watts
You would have to pull a lot of water or drop a very high height. The ram pump is going to consume a lot of the water still and not to pump as much back to the top. In the end most of the water would end up at the bottom of the system
@@LandtoHouse Thanks for replying! I can help but think there's got to be some ingenius way of reusing the same water in some sort of collection cycle.
A year-old post, but I’m answering for future readers
“Is this possible”
Water downhill, then water uphill.
Unless you provide external power,
No.
You are describing a ‘perpetual-motion machine’
Hey I know you don't make ram pump videos anymore but I got an idea, what if instead of high pressure in the drive pipe you would use low pressure at the waste valve (with a pipe going further downstream) . Could you gain 1 of the 7m (rule of thumb) ? but fantastic bed ;-)
Do you mean feed a second pump from the waste of the first?
Can I use 1×3 for the slats
That should be just fine. Those can be more expensive than 2 by 4. That's the primary reason I went with 2 by 4
Ok...that makes sense. Its just that am thinking I wouldn't want it to be any heavier than it needs to...but thanks for your response. Love your work
How long did it take for your stain to dry?
About 4 days.
What would I need if this was a king size bed . Do you mind giving specs?
Hello. Thank you for asking. I actually have a complete build video for that link in the description
Great video but how much did all them 2x6s cost you . This is an expensive bed
Before c19 You could build this bed for approximately a $110. Now it's probably pushing somewhere around $160. It is a rock solid frame and should last a lifetime.
Is it raining ?
Oh yes. It rains all summer long here. Best indoor project weather.
Do you have a PDF with the cuts and lumber needed ?
Yeah recessed legs, good idea, broken toes ain't fun, especially when you hit the leg with a already broken toe! PainFULL!
Where do kids hide DAB pens?
Parvez Aslam good thanks so much love u 🇵🇰 very good thanks thanks for your love and good thanks so much love u miss you so much love u 🇵🇰 very good thanks thanks 🤔 thanks

Nice video! My Tuft & Needle Mint queen size mattress is 12” tall. The site states; The space between individual slats should be fewer than 5” for the right support. I feel using 1x4 would handle the weight. I’ve seen some slats with strips of material at both ends and the middle stapled to them at the desired spacing. They are rolled out ready to go.
