It came out stunning. Nothing nicer than an handcrafted piece of furniture. When I was a child I had a beautiful had made twin bed from with the headboard that has spindles. I'm sad it was lost somewhere along my journey and my parents divorce. I would have loved to have passed it along to my grandson.
One of the things I loved the most was when you said.. this isn't the best way to do this but it's how I did it with the tools I have. That's the sign of a true master craftsman.
WOW!!! That thing is something else, what a piece of heirloom furniture you created there...super impressive!!! Wonderful narrative too, appreciate it the work you put into these productions, thank you Andy.
Amazing work! So beautiful. It was funny when I watched this because I honestly thought I had accidentally paused the video at 10:55. I had closed captions off.
Hey Andy, You should get yourself a pattern makers vise or a guitar repair vise as it's sometimes known as to hold irregular shapes like that trim. Search "guitar-repair-vise" to see what I mean. Just an all round awesome tool. Cheers mate.
Always feel like such a novice when I see such skill on display. Beautiful bed. You make it look easy, but it’s clear how much care and craftsmanship you put into your work. Thanks for sharing.
You are awesome. I've watched your builds for a while now and it is very exciting to see what you have in the video - shop. Thanks for sharing this video
I enjoyed your video I cannot do that work myself because I don't have the tools like the thing I learned most was that I need that bed! LOL it's a beautiful bed and I just love it, same size as what I would need. You are such a talented man, keep up the good work!
Andy, just started watching your videos recently because of the Airstream build. Would love an Airstream but living in Australia it’s out of the question as they are 1 foot too wide and have to be narrowed before being allowed on our roads which is budge $$$. I really like the tuition in your videos, not too much, but enough for people experienced and beginner alike to think about how they approach the task like the use of the router post, an item experienced users would know about but not know the importance of, and beginners to consider. Build quality in the project is fantastic and can’t wait for the interior fit out of the van.
Hey Andy, you’re right, that IS a really nice coffee mug. So I just ordered one. I have a questions about balancing UA-cam and clients. Do clients know you’re making a video about their project beforehand and/or what has your clients reactions been to your videos that include their projects? Thanks! Love your work
To solve the curved trim problem you could make an offset template that is smaller than the original by the thickness of the trim, then run it on a router table!
Have you thought about or tried to use your CNC to make these moldings? It seems like it would be the ideal machine to get the work done precisely and repeatably.
The trouble with the CNC is the setup time is often 10 times what it would take to make it by hand. If you plan to make 100 of these beds, it would be worth it, but if you are only making one, then it's not worth doing ten hours of computer work when you can make it on the bandsaw and router table in one hour.
@@jimthesoundman8641 And I agree to a point, he stated it took him two days to do the trim from start to finish. I use a CNC in my shop and after careful tuning of the machine itself, I can turn out a piece of trim and have it fit first time much faster than two days. For things that actually take an hour, it absolutely is a waste of time, but it is possible to take your 2-10 hours and still save yourself 12+.
I have thought about it. I’m still trying to learn the CNC especially the software side. I know you could make this trim on a CNC but I couldn’t figure it out. Also, not sure my smaller CNC could do something this complicated.
@@AndyRawls I appreciate the reply, and that's absolutely fair. I have a cnc, a miter saw and hand tools in my workshop, so I have to lean on the cnc heavily right now. Depending on whether the software is capable of 3d carving gives you some options on how to make custom trim, it's nice if you can attach one ball nose bit and send it off for an hour. However if not, I believe you are still working with a router in your cnc, which is great too, as long as you have the correct collet, you should be able to use the same bits in your cnc that you used in the first place. Although I caution against anything with bearing guides until you are more experienced, unless they are removable. If you don't have other resources to pull from I would be more than happy to give you any assistance I can with a future project. Thank you for another great video by the way, I always learn a little something new every time I tune in.
Beautiful build. I should have done the floating tenons instead of pocket hole screws on my headboard but I'm new to this and still learning. Do you sand in between lacquer coats?
Andy that headboard looks beautiful, not my style but it is beautiful none the less. But I am curious as to if you could produce a mission style headboard, with that top pattern. And I know that is probably classified as a mission headboard, but it is not the kind with the wood slats in the center of the headboard.
Hey Andy love the videos! I just wanted to know if you had any tips on wood working, I don't have a whole lot of money and wanted to know what the best things I should have are. I plan on working my way up, getting more tools later to make better things and possibly starting my own business. I've only done this stuff in high school and really enjoyed it If you could help me out I'd be very grateful and appreciative please and thank you.
Any tablesaw will work well if you take the time and effort to set it up properly. Try to get one with at least a 3/4 horsepower motor on it. You can find used tablesaws easily anywhere used tools are sold. There are lots of UA-cam videos on how to rehab and setup old tablesaws. I have a tablesaw from 1947 and it still works great, all it takes is a bit of elbow grease.
Callum Harper Callum, can I suggest you look at Paul Sellers (UK wood worker) he’s predominantly a hand tools wood worker who is into educating people in hand tools and how to restore, maintain and use them which will save you lots of money, increase knowledge and experience in wood working. Andy will agree with me the use of hand tools is so mush more pleasurable than a power tool any day. I may also suggest holding off on a table saw for the time being, three main reasons 1) experience if you don’t need one now why buy it while they cut down time and effort they are not the only answer or way to reduce timber, better to get a track saw and guide rail system at its more versatile and safer in most cases, yes I have a table saw and track saw but I use the track saw 3 time before the table saw. 2) I would not buy one until you really need one and can afford the best such as the saw stop the type as seen in Andy’s first bed video he made a mistake with a tape measure and the saw stop saved possibly saved him a significant injury. 3) a table saw needs dust extraction for safety for your lungs cheaper on a track saw than a table saw. You can always find a neighbour who has a table saw to help if you need one just listen to your neighbour hood on a Saturday you’ll find one or join a club until you really need one.

I wonder what tools that I have that you don't have oh wait harbor freight power tools because you like hand tools but I use hand tools too but oh well I'm 15 and not buying Milwaukee stuff I already made that mistake buy buying drills

great work Andy, the veneer part was very profesional, I just hope your client gives the real value of a pro wood artist like you.
Simply beautiful work! BEW - T - FULL !!!!!!!!
Gorgeous piece. You did an awesome job.
Nice. Some reason I always enjoy bed builds. Nice bed
you are amazing, such talent , thank Almighty God for your obvious great abilities wow
Mr. Rawls, you are truly an Artist and a Craftsman. Thank you.
Bello trabajo Andy, saludos desde Córdoba, Argentina!!!!
WOW!!!
That thing is something else, what a piece of heirloom furniture you created there...super impressive!!!
Wonderful narrative too, appreciate it the work you put into these productions, thank you Andy.
that headboard is crazy good looking! superb job Mr Rawls. Love your craft
Beautiful work, brother.
Thanks Andy. Really enjoyed the video.
Such talent! Absolutely beautiful!
Amazing work! So beautiful. It was funny when I watched this because I honestly thought I had accidentally paused the video at 10:55. I had closed captions off.
Incredible! Nice work Andy
Absolutely beautiful!
Andy I use a plastic straw to remove glue squeeze out, I cut an angle on the end with sissors it works great. Awesome vid Very nice wrk on the bed
Man I want to be like you when I grow up

Stunning! Thanks for sharing
Absolutely gorgeous!!! That cherry really pops with the finish.
Amazing work!👏👏👏
Man that is beautiful!
Nice job Andy
Absolutely stunning , excellent craftsmanship
Excellent works as always Andy. That wood is beautiful.
Just super!
Great bed ... :)
Thank you very much for the interesting video.
Take care of yourself and your family there.
Good luck.
A beautiful bed.
Nice job. I really love the furniture builds. Dan
That was some very impressive trim work.
You are just so good! I recently had to do a simple butt to butt mitre and I got it wrong twice!!
Very beautiful!

Beautiful!! Very nicely done.

Thanks for the kind words! I had no idea Airstreams wouldn’t legally fit the roads in Australia, that’s a huge bummer.
Please make a wooden smoking pipe. I've been dabbling myself with making some and would love to see your take on one
Very nice work~!!
Looks great I'm not quite in that stage of my woodworking but would love one day to be able to build something like this
I wish I had half your shop 🛠
great job! incredible!
One thing I never see you use until this vid is the router table. I never seem to use mine either. Just an interesting observation
it was amazing! congratulations on the work.🌲🛏
Very good
Nicely done
Check out a 23g headless pin nail leaves very small hole vs 18g Ridgid sells one Very nice work by the way
A great job.

Good video
Just a quick question , how long does it take you to sharpen All of your chisels each week and how do you get them so sharp ?
Beautiful build. I should have done the floating tenons instead of pocket hole screws on my headboard but I'm new to this and still learning. Do you sand in between lacquer coats?
Yesss I've been waiting for this
Will you put stop blocks between the slats to keep them from shifting? I have seen them move toward one end and cause the box spring to rock a bit.
Andy that headboard looks beautiful, not my style but it is beautiful none the less. But I am curious as to if you could produce a mission style headboard, with that top pattern. And I know that is probably classified as a mission headboard, but it is not the kind with the wood slats in the center of the headboard.
I don't even own a saw and here i am at 3 in the morning
Any chance you can do a tutorial on how to set up hand planes?
Search for Paul Sellers on UA-cam, he's the undisputed guru on everything related to hand planes.
@@jimthesoundman8641 thank you!
JimTheSoundman I agree
Agreed!
@@AndyRawls Thank you Sir, I can never seem to get mine set up right, I either take nothing off or gouge the wood.
Can you share the price you charged and total hours you put toward this project. Great work, as always!
Now do it with a wooden moulding plane if you really want to challenge yourself!
Nice

Check out the /r/woodworking channel over on Reddit. You'll find a ton of good advice there.
@@jimthesoundman8641 will do, thank you for the help!
Also check out Paul Sellers and Frank Strazza. I learned a lot of what I know from Paul.
@@AndyRawls sweet, thank you Andy!
If you cut the pattern on the cnc to make the part couldn’t you just make the part on the cnc? Excellent videos love watching your work
You probably could but I don’t have the technical know how to do that in the CNC. Still
trying to learn all that stuff
What kinda router bit is that and can you send me link please
I’m 14 and started woodworking a few months ago. I’m from UK, what table saw would you recommend 🙂

Why didn't you cut out the trim on your cnc?
That is a pretty wood. Can it be purchased anywhere. I live in Texas so I would like to get my hands on some.
It’s hard to find. Maybe Berdoll Sawmill has some - you would have to just a call around to some of the smaller Texas sawmills.
Hey Andy, what size was that bed? I'm just getting started on a king size walnut bed. Glad to see your bid!
It’s a Queen
What do you use to film your videos? DSLR? Camcorder? Phone? None of the above?
Panasonic lumix g85. It’s half broken but gets the job done!!
Do you ever think about the fact that people will absolutely get it on in a bed you made?
How much did the customer pay for it, out of of curiosity?
