    Seriously who could unlike this video. Dude going out of his way for his kids and providing in my opinion the best loft build video on UA-cam. Great video

    Fantastic idea. We've been looking to give the kids more rm in their bedrms. Our daughter plays piano and likes to practice on the keyboard. Underneath is the perfect place. Our son plays drums and needs space for his electronic drums. And we (parents) enjoy the peacefulness and space in our livnrm. I bow to thee!!

      I know this is late...but I just came across this. This is massive overkill. I've built beds like this and beds with supports using 1x4. He build this strong enough to put a waterbed on. While I agree with 2x6 along the sidewalls, The rest can be made using 1x4 fro cross supports with 1x6 along back wall and front face.

    You can also use structural screws. They are available in different sizes, lengths, and colors and either hex or torx head. They don't require pre-drilling but I would recommend two screws per stud.

    Bravo on the simplicity and explaining the tools and screws. Juuuuust a touch over-built though, you could prob park a car up there lol. That loft is lasting longer than the shed. OH get some torx or squarehead screws and give them a try. You'll never drive another phillips ever.

  • @buckwilliams8065
    @buckwilliams8065 4 роки тому +1

    hi, buck here, i loved your project, however i want to add a suggestion. on your ladder to the upper bunk deck, it needs to be at right angles to the dismount/mount to the upper deck, the kids need to approach the ladder from one side or another so that they are not extending facefirst or backwards to get onto the ladder but from the side so tthat they can see where they are going to land or step onto, if you look at industrial safety ladders you will see that the dismount is to either side than over the top of the ladder, example, if you are dismounting from your roof of your house onto a ladder you need to be able to see where you are placing your feet to going rather than backing blind to a potential fall point, its just the way your brain works, you need a place to one side or the other to place your butt, to be stable or to step from, i spent 60 years as an industrial millwright/machinist and have been up many hundreds of yards of safety ladders and i always felt safer stepping sideways onto a landing, good luck, i added your build onto my bookmarks, thanks buck...

    The light is so close to kids and pillows (pillow fights) and horseplay it would worry me. Maybe a different type light or a case type item over that light. You did a fine job making the loft.

    Looks awesome bro, just a thought, get yourself a bevel, cheap ones are about $7, that way you could of used it to make the angle top and bottom without needing ply or some the right thickness and marking top and bottom can be done without the ladder in place. But anyway great job

    Judging from when you were screwing in the 2nd Lag Bolt they are at least 4" in length but not sure on the thickness. Thank you!
