    Mike, would it be just as easy to upholster the headboard with human skin?

      Paxton Smith
      Take a look at my foreskin
      It's the only skin I got
      Not much of a foreskin
      I never seem to get a lot
      Ba, ba, da, da, da, ba

      Paxton, if you get a little bit of foreskin from Buckey The Dog you can add it to a container of Lacquer Thinner for a few days and it will stretch out over the entire headboard. I'm not speaking from experience...this is just what a friend told me.

    You have no idea how badly I wish I could make this bed. Lost mine in the flood and have searched the Internet unsuccessfully for two years and can’t find one to buy. This was more difficult than I thought it would be. Required a ton of lumber I wouldn’t have expected. It turned out perfect. It’s everything I’ve been looking for and can’t find.

    Love this book! ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxpCNxqmAkyjN6NPx1fyB7QiEFWyO5mUWL it is simply one-of-a-kind! I really love it, because karah explained all tools required to have the job done, not mentioning the fabulous diy pallets ideas. I'm pretty sure this will be a fresh start in my new endeavour. Amazon was great, they delivered on time. Thank you!

    I love this one. Easily my favorite bed of yours. You could have also glued carpet scraps to the bottom of the draws to get them to slide

    I like the idea of castors. Lining up drawer hardware is a pain the butt. Your way looks easier. I like those RZ masks !!

    • @ModernBuilds
      @ModernBuilds  7 років тому +1

      Especially when the plywood had as much bend in it as mine did. Yeah, the RZ Masks are awesome

    Could you please make a similar bed (with storage) but in the size of a double bed? Or could you possible put up the measurements for this bed but in the size of a double bed? Thanks, love your work.

    I think your egg table is looking even better than it did in the video where you made it. you might not know everything about wood working but you are making really good stuff, and not just talking about it. nice bed dude

    I'd love to make a sofa/day bed with storage like this! I loved your other diy mid-century sofa/day bed, but my roommate only likes furniture that sits flat on the floor because she has a few small animals.

  • @AllisonLitt
    @AllisonLitt 7 років тому +2

    Love the storage idea because I have a small room, but I also have carpet + a rug, so the wheels wouldn't be such a good option

    • @ModernBuilds
      @ModernBuilds  7 років тому

      Thank you!! The casters would still work on a rug, so long as it's not super "shaggy"

  • @Slovenianwoodworker
    @Slovenianwoodworker 7 років тому

    Yet another great build..
    Glue gun is good tip for fronts it just could be problem with delicate projects it could make gaps between fronts and actual drawer.I recommend you to use "mitre fast" glue you just apply fev drops and spray activator.
    Nice work

    • @ModernBuilds
      @ModernBuilds  7 років тому

      Yeah, for more precise projects it'd probably be good, but for projects like this it's awesome

  • @Mrs_Dale

    👍🏻👍🏻 yes, the castors drawers was very smart ! 👍🏻👍🏻

  • @RJPHOENIX
    @RJPHOENIX 5 років тому +2

    Pretty nice! The only thing I would do different is to eliminate the drawer rollers on the floor, in favor of simple wooden drawer slides made of one by scrap wood. two - 1" X 1"s on the inside of each cross support and one - 1" X 1" screwed onto the outside of each drawer.
    That makes the drawers just a tiny bit wider and eliminates any wear on the floor, or if you have carpet.
    Cheers!

  • @castanedagus
    @castanedagus 6 років тому +1

    I like the entir project and i want one!!! But, I don't like the drawers to have a gap for dust to get into! Ubnder beds seems to gather lots of dust so I don't want that on my clothes of blankets after I store them. Make the drawer fronts higher with s small outside indent to be able to pull them. I like the casters and the mask looks awesome!!!

    Instead of batting, you can use carpet pad (in as many layers as you want) to get a thicker, softer cushion.

  • @ItsDagwood

    Maybe add small triangle-slats to the sides of the drawers, that way they'll somewhat self-align as you roll them back in place.

  • @FortYort
    @FortYort 5 років тому

    Looks great, but regardless of humidity levels where you live it's always a good idea to go with a slatted surface rather than a single sheet with no breathing room for your mattress.

  • @inplainsight131

    You should put some cut in half tennis balls on the back of the drawers so they don't bump the bed frame.

      Had no idea you were in a new shop! I think you mentioned before the barn door vid that you had moved but I couldn't tell if that meant a new shop space, etc or just a new apartment or whatever. Well awesome - looking forward to the tour and as always, love the vids you put out!

  • @XZaneLP
    @XZaneLP 7 років тому +1

    I am glad you worked some more (than planned) on the structural aspect of the bed. But I see one possible flaw: the wood underneath as its joined pure wood on wood in the squares. I assume that using the bed (e.g. sleep in it or moving on/off it) will cause some wood squeals over time, also leading to abrasion of the wood. Perhaps there is a plastic component that could be added? A slide-in piece that joins the wood without to let it touch one another? I consider that (plus nails or glue) to be a cheap solution to an otherwise raising problem. But, I could be mistaken. Anyone expert on the topic?
