Awesome! Glad to hear this. I get compliments all the time on the rigidity of this bed. It’s still as strong today as the day I built it and will outlive me lol.
Great Video! Just built it for my wife. Happy Wife, Happy Life. The only thing I did differently was replace the 1x8 panels with 1x12 and then rip them to 8 inches.
Thank you for posting this video. I built ours and it came out looking great. Perfect for our needs-three dogs-for these chilly nights! Good design, easy to construct with basic tools. much easier to assemble with mentioned jack stands-harbor freight! undercarriage clearance allows standard roll away clothing box.
I have been wanting a king size bed for some time now but couldn't afford to buy one, a friend of mine suggested I make one and after watching your video I will be making my bed, For I have remodeled my house basically myself. I have done some unique thing's in my house that most wouldn't think about doing, So thank you for doing this video, Great Job!
Thanks for the video. Just finished my Cali king bed last night. I used pallet wood on the head and foot boards. My head board is taller at 64 and the foot board is 40 just for that bigger bulky look. I also notched my side rails to the post. Really appreciate the shopping list. I paid around $300 for the wood.
Same here. I bought it all in pine and it costs me $500 CDN. Most expense part were the 4x4s as I had to get them from a lumber yard and plane them down.
Best bed frame video , I'm heading to Home Depot right now to get what I need for this project, I appreciate your time on making this video for us , Thanks a bunch ...
Fantastic design. Wife wanted bigger headboard so I made it 64" to cap rail. Footboard made to 32" high with 20" square opening in middle so our dogs can crawl under the bed. Also stained the head and footboard slats a weathered grey and everything else a dark kona
Great idea! Nice bed! I liked your idea of not screwing the joist hangers to the 2x4,s and just letting them sit there and be removable when it's necessary...
Thanks man built it last week wife and I love it I didn’t have to cut the piece for the head and foot they came out to be exactly what I need thanks again
The bed turned out so nice !!! I am making a full size farmhouse bed and love the whole project. I got some nice ideas from your video !!! Thank you for sharing !!!!
Holy cow you can even make it easier on yourself by having your local store you use for materials cut all the wood for you. Then all you'll need to do is drill your holes, and install the hardware. Shaving off a good chunk of time. Love these projects where imo you wind up with a better quality end product for a fraction of what's available commercially.
It's not hard to cut wood, it's also nice to have the extra scrap left over for the next project. I just finished this bed build but slightly modified. I bet it took all of 10 minutes of my time to pre cut every single piece. I also can rest easy knowing evey cut is exactly on. Lumber yard workers sometimes don't really care. Or they don't inspect the piece for defects on each end and will often cut off a good end and leave a dent or damaged end.
Just built mine last night. Everything came out perfect! Only thing was I needed one 30’ 1x8 and one more 15’ 1x8 for the headboard and footboard. Great build!
I can't wait to do this. I'm decorating a room for a little girl and she wants a farmhouse bed with metallic shiplap walls. You made it look pretty easy. I hope that it is.
ATMoore Awesome!! Haha I tell people you can park a truck on top of it and she won’t budge! Mine is still going as strong as the day I built it. It’ll last a lifetime!
I love the comment on the OSB board because I'm a cheap person ...... lmol. believe me at this time that wood is really expensive there is no cheap person at all. love your Farmhouse (NOT cheap at all) platform bed !
"I'm a cheap person" lolol. Me to man. Money ain't growing on trees. I bought the lumber to build two twin beds today. Hope to use this video to help me.
Just about done with mine…followed cut list to a T, ended up getting 1 more 1x8, and adding 2 rips to the head board and 2 rips to the footboard. Everything else went perfectly, thanks man!!
This is beautiful! My husband said he would make me a bed but I had to find a shopping list and diy for him of one... this video could not be more perfect! Thank you so very much! You made my husband's hunny do list much easier! And I saw someone else post about how much you spent and I'm super excited! (I joked to him saying that I am getting my dream bed on sale haha)
THANK YOU so much for this video and all the materials!!!!!! We are going to build it exactly the way you did because this is the exact bed I want... thank you thank you!!!
Thank you for sharing your design and detail cut list. After watching your video i think i can actually make this. Appreciate everything you do and show.
Just wanted to say thanks for the video!! I found the plans on Ana white but it didn’t give many details on how to put it together. This helped tremendously. As a 24 year old female I was able to do 90% of this by myself. 💪🏼
Just made a variation of this bed! thank you so much for all the effort you put into this video I hope you are doing great! (First project I have done!)
Great job good sir, I just started working on wood work this past year and I love it. I want to make myself a bed frame just like you did. I love the farmhouse style. I will make myself one too. I’ll keep you posted. Like I said I’m new but I love working with my hands and I’m a quick learner thank you for this bed frame project. Keep up the great work!
Great thanks but u forgot to put the 1x3x8 in the shopping list. It's in the cut list. I didn't realize till after I was almost done cutting. Lol. But best video ever.
Nice build. In thinking about making one out of cedar. Only thing I would done diffrent is come up with some way to hide the bracket you had on the foot rail side.
Hey man, The wife has been nagging me for quite some time for a bed like this. Thanks as I am now finaly getting the tools and the want to, I think I can do this. Subbed you Popo!
J. Watson Thanks, it’s really not that bad of a build. It’s more time consuming than hard. Once you get it done you’ll love it. This bed is solid as a rock and it’ll be one of a kind that you can’t buy in a store! Good luck!! 👍🏻
I loved this bed build! I also loved you laid the list right out there for us my wife is redoing our home farmhouse style so this will be a cheap way to do an awesome looking bed! Thank you and keep up the great vids.
Great job!! Im sure the wife was very happy with her new bed made by her hubby!! That makes it even more special!! ;) You've inspired me to make my own bed bc Im not rich at all!! Cant afford those $1600 beds!! Lol!!
Great project, just what I am wanting to do. Thanks for video and lists! Just one suggestion - they make brackets for beds like this that come apart for setup but also are hidden. I think they have them at the Big Box stores or at Woodcraft Stores. Bob
awesome vid, thus far this is the best bed frame vid i've found with the style that i actually like. I'll be making one here in the next couple of months except mine is for a queen bed but i'm sure scaling down the measurments will easy enough. Anyhow this vid has helped and I'm sure will served to help again here in the near future as a guideline when i start my built. Keep up the good work.
You get thumbs up on everything you do for sure ! That is nice i want to make one for kid in next house but no head boards or foot board.. just like Japanese style platform bed & just put shelves all the way around that she can put baskets in
Thats a good looking bed that I think I can make. you made it look pretty easy and straight forward... Also, love the stain color. Thanks for the video!
This is the most detailed farmhouse bed DIY on UA-cam!! Thank you!!!
Your Welcome. Hope this video helps!!
Just made one for our new house. Cut list is perfect for a king size bed. I painted the bed white instead of staining. Thank you so much!
Awesome! Glad to hear this. I get compliments all the time on the rigidity of this bed. It’s still as strong today as the day I built it and will outlive me lol.
Hello, Can you send me the supply list? I could not find it. Great looking bed!
@@garykboykin7498 all details are in the description. Tap the word "more" and the shopping list and cut list are there. UA-cam keeps changing things.
Thank you for making it something regular guys like me can afford to do
Lucky wife. Turned out very beautiful. Tfs
You’re a talented man sir, well done.
Would love to go back to the day that OSB was 10 dollars a sheet!!
Will probably never see that bud not with the commander and chief we have
I remember when OSB was $7 and 1/2” CDX was like $12
Great Video! Just built it for my wife. Happy Wife, Happy Life. The only thing I did differently was replace the 1x8 panels with 1x12 and then rip them to 8 inches.
I bet that got you a great big "ATTA BOY "!!! Very nice job and thank you for sharing this project. !!!
Made a queen version of this 4 years ago... about to do it again for a king! Best dimensional lumber DIY out there!
Thanks for adding the materials and cuts-super helpful.
Joist hangers on this slats is smart! I brought hangers for each corner. Thanks for the idea
Started this bed today. Only have the footboard assembled so far. Loving how beautiful and simple this is. Thank you so much!
Thank you for posting this video. I built ours and it came out looking great. Perfect for our needs-three dogs-for these chilly nights! Good design, easy to construct with basic tools. much easier to assemble with mentioned jack stands-harbor freight! undercarriage clearance allows standard roll away clothing box.
This was damn well done. If there more people willing to watch videos like this you'd be famous
Stefan S thanks!
Loved your video and your cut list. My husband and i made it together. Thank you much for doing this video

I just finished building this bed in all cedar. It's absolutely amazing. Thank you for the plans! My husband loves it!
It cost me 500-600. I did buy a few supplies I didn't have.
Same here. I bought it all in pine and it costs me $500 CDN. Most expense part were the 4x4s as I had to get them from a lumber yard and plane them down.
This wife gave up...and Learned Carpentry herself. Thanks for your post very helpful.

Very easy to understand. Great video. I will be making this bed. Thank you for posting free plans, and cut list..
It is Gorgeous, been asking my husband to build one for me. I am sure you have one happy wife!!
Yes, we have really enjoyed this bed and it’s as strong now as the day I built it!
This looks great, I love it! We’re going to build one too, thanks for sharing!
Great way to use joist hangers. Pretty, strong and simple.

Colorfully Living I really isn’t that bad of a build. Would be easier with an extra set of hands tho!!!
I just finished this bed today. It weighs a ton, but I bet this thing could withstand a nuclear blast! Thanks for the video!!
ATMoore Awesome!! Haha I tell people you can park a truck on top of it and she won’t budge! Mine is still going as strong as the day I built it. It’ll last a lifetime!
@@PoposWoodworks roughly how heavy would be? 200+ lbs?
I think you did a great job. I've watched a few others and your attention to detail is far superior to any that I have seen.
Thank you. I couldn’t find a bed that I liked that wasn’t crap so I built this one. I added some
Mason jar lights that I made for the posts.
I love the comment on the OSB board because I'm a cheap person ...... lmol.
believe me at this time that wood is really expensive there is no cheap person at all.
love your Farmhouse (NOT cheap at all) platform bed !
I love the joist hanger idea!!
I plan on making a canopy style bed using your formula... thanks so much for posting this!
That's beautiful my friend, great job, hi from England.
Thanks, it even surprised me how well it came out.
Excellent idea using the hangers for the center supports! And the end blocks too. This would have been very difficult to move if not! Great video.
I'm currently making the bed so far and it's coming together great
Thanx man! I can't wait to "try" to build one for the wife!
I am halfway through making this right now. Thank you very much for the detailed video.
Cheers from Canada.

Thats a good looking bed that I think I can make. you made it look pretty easy and straight forward... Also, love the stain color. Thanks for the video!
It really isn’t a hard build at all! And this bed is still as strong and sturdy as the day I built it.
