Thankyou, I have made this bed and it's awesome. Extended the legs and made a headboard. Couldn't have done it without your video. 'It's Friday night and I'm having a beer' is now a standard quote in our house.
Loving the option to disassemble and reassemble, mainly because people move, and it's far easier to move this heavy thing more quickly and safely. Thanks!!!
Just built this for a full-size mattress and it's great!! Thanks for the amazing video! It felt amazing to be able to build this by myself and not have to go out and buy one.
Suggestions: Make the legs high enough to enable you to use the large area under the bed for storage, e.g. suitcases, mother-in-law, etc. Also, cut out a rebate on the bottom of 2 legs, to allow the bed to be pushed up flush with the wall & avoid hitting the skirting board.
I didnt even think about using hardware for the bed frame, usually all the videos that pop up are all joinery techniques that take a long time to prepare. This makes it much easier for people without the proper shop. Also liked the beer scene in it lol
I can't thank you enough, you kept it basic simple and straight to the point I've watch over 20 videos and I've gotten an instant headache just watching them. I love this bed I can't wait to get started. . Thank you again, new subscribe.
I’m another ‘bloke’ who likes to do his own stuff at home. I have to say, not only is this a fantastically helpful clip but you seem like a top man to boot. Thank you for your wisdom!
I have watched many videos on DIY bed for a similar bed frame. I am fully satisfied with the design,it's making and the mode of presentation. One of the best designs I found in internet. Thanks for the simplest design. Nice job well done.
Hello My British Amigo!! I am a Latin man living in Canadá!!! I watched some other videos on UA-cam how to build the best and easiest bed frame. I was about to give up with someone else's design when your video came up!! I AM SO HAPPY!! I watched yours 'cause is THE BEST!!! my friend !! The easiest to put together and and take apart for moving purposes. Pretty looking clean frame and must have for sure nice aroma too. I don't like to copy-cat 100%, but pretty close..I will just make one small change in the little piece of wood that goes in the center from front and bottom of 2"×6" to hold/support the 2"×3" timber that hold the slots across. Congratulations I give you 100% ☺️👊👍Muchas Gracias🙏..Hasta Vista🙋AMIGO..!!SALUTES desde Alberta, Canadá
Hi Rolando, did you make this bed in the end? If so, could I ask what change you made to the little piece of wood? I feel like that is the only week spot in this design. It's basically a 1" strip of wood holding the 2"x3" (it's only as strong as it's weakest spot, and the screw is going to doing be most of the work).
Thank you! The first time I saw a video where one can make a bedframe by themselves, without spending on costly machinery :) which is normally the case...
I have been thinking of doing something like this for a few days, and you crystallized EXACTLY how I envisioned it after all that thinking. Great job!!!
Hi Justin, Just to say we followed your video, and have completed our double bed. Our local wood supplier was most helpful, when we told him what we were attempting. We chose to make the (head end) legs higher, at 39” (100mm), and the foot legs 20”(50mm). The upper legs we have included to horizontal bars, thus giving us a headboard. Comments so far have been positive, we tell them it was from your site. 👍👍👍👍
Absolutely fabulous! I'm on making one for myself. The old divan has given up the ghost, and I'm not about to part with the thick end of a grand for a wobbly, squeeky, particle board contraption. Not when I can easily put one together that will be rock solid, and at a fraction of the price. I've already watched a few YT tuts on how to make your own bed, and this is by far the most straight forward. Thanks for sharing. I'm on the lookout for the headboard upgrade.
I'm in Australia and that bed is bigger than our Queen. Our Queen is 1500mm wide, SK is apparently 1800mm wide. Our Queen size is the same as their King size, not Super King size tho
Quick , Simple & clean, most importantly , you are able to disassemble it, I'm going to make it with some slight alteration particularly taller legs for the headboard. Great video .
Had this tutorial video and cut list tucked away for a few months. Just completed the bed frame build for EU king size, as per all the spec. It’s a solid beautiful bed frame! Plugged feet post counter sink holes, added a salvaged piece of maple as a headboard. Thanks so much Justin🍻
i have research all kinds of home made bed frames this is the nicest one i have seen and planing to approach my bed frame project like yours thank you....
This was the best video! I looked at every UA-cam for a bed that I can make and take apart when I don't need it in the mini school bus we have. Your explanation is the easiest for me to understand and Ive ordered those brackets from Amazon too, as I once had a bed with them- totally fits my need!
Thank u .for doing this project learnt so much .very basic but learnt so much .it was brilliant .you could be a very good teacher in joinery .thank u again
This is great, learning from you is awesome, and what's good is that, now you can actually make your own king size bed. Cheers and can't wait to see your next videos.
Did you predrill the holes for the brackets before screwing them in? I can't see if you did. I have a much lower quality combi drill and am worried I won't make it through but also I find sometimes when I pre-drill it doesn't get completely straight. Thank you for your help. Thank you
Not too bad... When i was doing mine i decided that the best way of fixing all together is to use bolts and nuts not a screws. And also for this such a size of the bed it's stronger to let the side and front panels lying on the legs... Just my suggestion...
I just built this. I totally agree. The hinges I should have put on the corner posts. Currently the feels a little rocky. Although I think I need to reduce my height. I’m also going to secure it with L-brackets. Otherwise feels quite sturdy
I built this bed. It turned out great but I did add a couple elements. I added heavy-duty corner braces and spacers for the slats. I like to turn my mattress now and then and don’t want the slats to move.
Great vid, thanks for putting this up! Roughly, excluding the headboard, how much do you think the bed frame cost to make? Also, where did you get your timber, and what are the metal brackets called? Thanks for your help!
Do you think two 6x120 mm screws through the 3x3 legs into the top and bottom would be OK? I have modified your instructions to instead use 2x4 so now I have to basically fit the 6x120mm screws in between the 4x40mm screws of the bed brackets, but the margins between the middle two screws is so small. I am making a smaller bed though, at 140x190. Thank vou very much in advance.
This is good timing. With a little one who comes in and out of our bed when he struggles to sleep (teething!). We’re looking at super king! Would love to save some money if we can!
nice job. im thinking of adapting ur design to use IKEA slats. you could staple some 'tape' between the fixed slats to prevent non fixed ones from moving too much .
Thankyou, I have made this bed and it's awesome. Extended the legs and made a headboard. Couldn't have done it without your video. 'It's Friday night and I'm having a beer' is now a standard quote in our house.
That is absolutely wonderful. Thanks. My wife just walked in and saw that, and guess what my next project is?
I am giving my other half his new project. He doesn’t know about it yet 😃
@@James-ye7rp Amazing 👏
A dildo. Sorry, the way you put it, I couldn’t think of anything else at that moment.

🤣🤣🤣🤣mother-in-law huh? Classic🤣
Last place id want her
Mother-in-law under the bed😮😂
You definitely don't want a bed pushed up flush with a wall. You want some airflow to discourage mould growth.
@@carl8568What fucking mould grows in your house??
Mould is caused hy damp - not by a wooden bedframe
Jesus fucking Christ

This is the best king frame design that I’ve seen. Sleek modern lines. Simple and elegant construction. Great work!
Thanks Greg Greg

I am going to scale it down for my dogs bed, fencing two of the four sides. This is a beautiful, simple, sturdy design. Thanks a lot!
Thank you! The first time I saw a video where one can make a bedframe by themselves, without spending on costly machinery :) which is normally the case...
This is exactly what I wanted but I wasn’t sure how to build it but now I do!
Well done Justin...clearly the best on UA-cam DIY

Thank you. I am going to make this bed frame. I've been looking at building plans and I like yours the best !!
we just built ours fallowing along. first proper bit of furniture we've ever built. cheers :)
Lovely job. You've made it so simple. Thanks

Brilliant, thank you, and glad this helped. I have a headboard video too!
Excellent work!!! Thanks bro, GOD bless you, this tutorial has been a great help, Thanks again.
Maybe in the UK that’s a super king sized bed, but I can assure you that’s a Queen sized bed. Nice frame either way
I'm in Australia and that bed is bigger than our Queen. Our Queen is 1500mm wide, SK is apparently 1800mm wide. Our Queen size is the same as their King size, not Super King size tho
Wow the hook like brackets are really smart holy buckets!
Class,the thing I bought was rubbish,nice Job
Magic, I will be starting a single bed next week - Really enjoyed your video, bed looks Great
Quick , Simple & clean, most importantly , you are able to disassemble it, I'm going to make it with some slight alteration particularly taller legs for the headboard. Great video .
5:50 I hope you meant "when you assemble it"..... 🤔 LOL!!!!!
I really love the simpicity of your design. 🤘😁
Excellent job, simple and easy
Thank you. This is exactly what I was looking for , Justin. Job well done.
Excellent demonstration with detailed instruction. I am thinking of using this tutorial to make an elevated dog bed so my dog can look out the window.
Nice job man! That frame looks absolutely strong and sturdy, just what I need! Now ..... I need you to build one for me!? Great video! ThanQ
Thanks Man, appreciate it.
You did a great job!!! I love how you plugged the screw heads and chiseled it flush. Could tell there was ever a hole
Thanks man. Close up you can see the plugs, but very unnoticeable from a small distance.
Had this tutorial video and cut list tucked away for a few months. Just completed the bed frame build for EU king size, as per all the spec. It’s a solid beautiful bed frame! Plugged feet post counter sink holes, added a salvaged piece of maple as a headboard. Thanks so much Justin🍻
Great stuff, really good to hear 👏
Thanks for the great idea. I was thinking about buying a wood bed frame but I never thought about building my own.
I’m about to buy some timber and make one myself. Great video
i have research all kinds of home made bed frames this is the nicest one i have seen and planing to approach my bed frame project like yours thank you....
Simple clean design & good info
Awesome! You design some parts to be removable, but those plugs will make it permanent
True, but the top and bottom sections are relatively small
This was the best video! I looked at every UA-cam for a bed that I can make and take apart when I don't need it in the mini school bus we have. Your explanation is the easiest for me to understand and Ive ordered those brackets from Amazon too, as I once had a bed with them- totally fits my need!
Brilliant! Thanks Susan, glad it helped 😁
Good work, I like the corner hooks for future undoing/moving
Hey thanks I like the way you build it I will build one for my wife.
Thank u .for doing this project learnt so much .very basic but learnt so much .it was brilliant .you could be a very good teacher in joinery .thank u again
Thank you so much
@JBTV thank u .and reward u with this world and everything in it.god bless u and you're family .thank u for all you're hard work
I stumbled on this video after almost giving up , just about to make a bed for my daughter and this is the best video here.
Thank you so much.
Am planing building my own bed and I only though this was the way to do it good job 👍
It's a great build with basic tools I would love to see a build of a rectangular bed-end Ottoman for this bed.
Best one I have seen yet, thanks for sharing this bed frame idea 👍
Very nice job and beer breaks are essential
Very smart Job that you've done Justin.
Thank you
This is great, learning from you is awesome, and what's good is that, now you can actually make your own king size bed. Cheers and can't wait to see your next videos.

With the slats, you could permanently fix wood spacers along the rails. That would keep the slats from moving around too much.
Lovely bed
That was my idea. then the slats can just sit in place and it would be easier to break down for a move.
Very nice sir excellent work Pakistan
Thank you
nice one, I learnt from you, thanks a lot👨✈
