Great build Mitch! I sometimes struggle with dowels too, but I prefer pocket hole screws, and use pocket holes plugs to hide them. I enjoy them better than the dowels now. The best part of this video is the client’s reaction! Thanks for sharing bro, and God bless!
Hello my friend. A great bed project for your son. You did a good job. Your son looks very happy now. And he liked his new bed. I watched with curiosity. It's nice to create and share a variety of ideas to help many people. Congratulations. See you. I wish you have a nice weekend. Great greetings.
Thank you for sharing your info. I am wet behind the ears and need to build a bed since I am in between jobs, gave my bed to salvation army to downsize and am sleeping on a coleman cot which I like but it is no permanent replacement for a real bed. I need a twin because my room is about 8x14. I need to make it taller since my back isn't in the best of shape at 62 yrs. It would be nice to have a headboard with a built in bookshelf for those late night reads. I see where your hardware and board build-ups will work really good for this 180 lb. man.Thank you.
Just fyi the cross dowel nuts you link to in the description are 6mm, not 1/4 inch. Something I should've checked before buying. Other than that, great build!
Very nice project Mitch. Question: Did you make the hole too large to accommodate the barrel nuts at the corners? S/B 1/4" hole. I noticed the flat head furniture bolts might have been longer than necessary since they extended well beyond the barrel nuts. When gluing wood together it's always better to sprinkle a little bit of salt on the pieces. When they're clamped together they won't move. The salt will dissolve. I'm thinking that I will add 3 inches to the length and width so that the bedding will fold around the mattress without chafing your hands while making the bed. I like the fact that you chose 1x6 instead of using 2"x lumber. Did you use "Select Pine" for the side rails? I understand the knots have an aesthetic value but I'm thinking of spending the extra $$ for Oak or Clear Hemlock. Again, personal choice. Nice project and nicely done. THANKS.
I`m retired and have a small shop where I perform woodturning, create musical instruments, and some cabinetry. I have a shelf full of woodworking textbooks - but I found this woodworking guide, *TopFineWoodworking. Com* . The comprehensiveness of this book is surprising. It has decent coverage on every topic.?
Has numerous details in this woodwork book *TopFineWoodworking. Com* . The book also displays several designs and descriptions on the materials used for various woodworking processes and also the guidelines on completing various procedures appropriately. In other words, I`m happy using this book, especially in the process of learning about wood working.?
Music just makes it harder to understand you. Please?? Your spoken voice, when you broke in and talked from the shop/garage, was better! No music, please, we beg you.
great build, and so wholesome seeing your son's happy reaction :)
Aww! Your sons reaction was so cute! Great job!
Ik, it’s adorable

Great job
Absolutely I'll make it happen
Very nice as always.
Thanks Ronald!
Bumb
Just a thing to consider. you could use a 2x3 for the lip just in case the slats are a little short.
(edit) slats are cross braces.
Excellent job.
Love it Mitch! Proud of you!
Thanks Tony!

Supply list? The description on lists the sizes but not how many.
Linda família parabéns
Is this considered a twin XL? If not, how would you adjust to make it longer (cuts)?

Круто брат👍 Молодец!!!
Can anyone tell me... could you glue the four boards together and then cut instead?
nice
Very informative video thanks, would pocket hole work?
Thanks Ray! Yes I'm sure pocket holes could work
Nice job , it turns great! why not using pocket holes for this project?
Yea pocket holes way easier than those insert things...but if you are looking for the bolt showing look..
this is coollllllllllllllllll
Thanks Riley!
Interesting :)
How much is this cost to make it?
Lol $5 for the plan. You can get free plan build at Anna white she make tons of bed frame with free plan.
So pefct u r ❤😍#love frm india.....can u plz tell me where r uh from ...🤔?
What type of glue?

Why go go thru all that glue up, buy 4x4 and eliminate at least 4 steps with the legs and maybe more.
Who else's didn't finish this video?
Lol
Had to speed it up and still cut it short.
I did it too. This is what I used Woodglut designs for
Pocket holes are your friend. Way less work...🤷♂️
Your teeth are distractingly nice. I just wanted diy info! Lol
Music just makes it harder to understand you. Please?? Your spoken voice, when you broke in and talked from the shop/garage, was better!
No music, please, we beg you.
Why the headboard is damn high, proportion is not correct, i just don’t get why people do this 😢
