The first video I watched that was yours was the bookshelf with a built in door one. It was great so I subscribed and watched more. I can say that you've motivated and inspired me a lot and I'm going to make the easel soon. I love your creativity and your hardworking personality
Thanks!
You are welcome
Tooba Zehra omg same, the vid was in my recommended section and it looked cool
Me too
Tooba Zehra same
My girlfriend and I were looking at buying something like this and now Im just making one! Awesome work man!
This is just pure joy to watch. Every single one of your videos.
+sapnesh naik Thank you!!
I'm a woodworker myself living in the Netherlands and we have some pretty advanced machines in our workshop. But the small tools like the thing you drill the pocketholes with is so cool to see. Enjoying your video's so far!
i find my self constantly rewatching all your videos, I know I won't make any of it. IDK i think its the production value, these videos are very interesting and well put together.
Wonderful project. I am in love with that barn wood! That really gives it a cool look.
Dude, you've got mad skills!! I LOVE watching your videos. Thanks for sharing them!
Thanks so much!
Clamping that level to give a straight edge for the circular saw is a great idea. I realized what bob was doing and my jaw dropped a little. I can't wait until the next time I get to cut something!
Good use of cost effective lumber for places you won't see. Great design. Thanks.
It looks so easy on the video. The bed frame and drawers are very attractive. The instructions are not complicated ,easy to follow.I'm going to give it my best shot.
My wife has been begging me for a king size bed and the only thing holding me back is the cost of a bed and a mattress. I'm a beginner woodworker so I never thought to make one. You made it so simple for me and it looks incredible. Not to mention how much I'll save getting a mattress through Casper. Thanks Bob!
Great!!
Casper (or any of the almost identical competitors) will set you back $1000 before the base. So no, its not saving much.
We're remodeling our entire house and I'll definitely be coming back to this. I could definitely see myself using this to redo our beds, just adjusting the measurements. Thanks Bob!
I love it! I've been watching your projects all day and you have a lot of great ideas! Thank you for sharing!!!
Thanks so much Kimberly!
Yay!!!
One of the better looking beds I've seen. I made a headboard from a door from the 1930's era a few years ago. I just have it attached to a regular metal frame right now, but I wonder how it would look with something like this on it. Hmmm...you're giving me ideas.
That is beautiful! Well done!
Awesome!! My bed frame is my old water bed frame. We've had it since about 1986. After messing up my back in a car accident, we had to lose the water mattress. We went to Johnathan Stevens and got a very comfortable mattress. Now we want to make a new frame with drawers. Yours in this video is along the same lines as I was thinking only yours looks much easier to build. When spring comes, we will have to give it a try. If it works out, I will let you know. Thanks!!
Bob, you're the reason for my entire day's procrastination.
Sorry ? ;)
I really like how you cut the drawer fronts from a continuous piece of wood--that gives it a great seamless look. Nice design!
Bob I remembered you said during the brain pick with steve that you always had an issue with burning on your table saw. I think I might know why you're having that issue. It looks like you're using too high of tooth count blade on your table saw. I had the same issue with my Ryobi BT3000 because I was using a 80 tooth blade. I then switched to a 50 tooth Marples combination blade and I get the same smooth cuts and almost no burning. Plus boards ripped so much easier. Hope this helps!
Awesome, good call! I actually got a new saw recently so that should be less of an issue now. Still, that's a great tip so thank you!
What I like about this, is the simplicity, well done. Will be doing something similar
So well done! You are giving me motivation to try some stuff at home!
Great!!
Nicely done Bob! I like that technique too of just wrapping stuff with old stuff instead of trying to build all the parts of the stuff using the old stuff. Makes making stuff a lot simpler. Cause I Like To Make Stuff, too!
You make look even tough projects, so easy to inspire other DIYs.
I am person that struggles with hearing, literature and cognitive, so most of my life I have learned and taught myself through audio, video, and hands on training. It’s a lot easier to learn from someone as technical as you are, so I have subscribed to your channel thereof.
Love it !! Well done !!
Thanks Jimmy!
Awesome looking bed... Wish I had some old lumber.. What table saw are you using?
scott franks I was using a Craftsman portable, but have recently upgraded to a SawStop
I Like To Make Stuff which sawstop did you get?
Ned Bulken The professional cabinet saw.. 30" fence
Bob, this is a good project. With so much plywood, the cost of this project goes up. It's definitely stronger and more durable, but the cost is a little prohibitive...when I make my frame, I'll probably use OSB, especially on the hidden parts. Good to watch you build this...it helps when you lay out the in-betweens, like how you ensure the dividers were in the right spot and how you went about it.
I am a Joiner from Austria, and wow, you have realy cool ideas ;)
I live in Brazil and isnt easy to get motivaded to do things like that. I've watched a lot of your vids and i can't imagine how amazing is build something like that and then see someone using it. So Congrats, you do a incredible work!
UA-cam knows I've been looking at bed frames on Amazon...and it choose to bring this video back to my suggestions!
Throwback to the old shop! I'd forgotten how SMALL it was o.0
All the stuff you make is just awsome. You start with an idea and you just MAKE IT! You made a frickin secret bookcase. You made a bed! I'm seriously impressed. Keep it up!
It's 5 AM and I'm watching a Guy creating an Amazing bed lol...
What? No Arduino controlled led lights in the drawers? How utterly ordinary. lol just kidding....
Nice build and video!
Haha! Hang on, be right back.... :)
KSFWG p
Everything you make is awesome
2014!
I am a fan of your channel (maybe not a good one), but here I am watching a 2014 video. I am not a builder, i am a full time doctor, and do not plan to become anything else. But this calm me down. You are that good. Thank you.
congratulations really good job😊👍👌
I don't construct anything but I really enjoy watching your videos, it's kind of relaxing to see a bunch of materials and at the end see the final piece! :) hughs from venezuela
Awesome !! Man, i'm not a maker ....... but i get hypnotized with your videos...
It's really cool to see you build staff.. i'm subscribing the channel, keep the good work man .. =D
Gabriel Marques Thanks Gabriel! Maybe I'll get you inspired to make something at some point! ;)
Gabriel Marques Staff you mean stuff
Nice bed. I kinda expect an elecrically moveable bed with automatic massager, a coffeemaker and integrated alarmclock, all of that powered by arduino or raspberry pi. :)
Well, now that you mention it...... ;)
I was thinking a small ceramic heater in the middle portion of the cabinets . thermostatically controlled on long cold winter nights. But most of you guys live where it doesn't get cold LOL
Hey Bob. I just finished making my version of this. My wife loves it and I can't thank you enough. Keep inspiring folks to MAKE STUFF.
Fantastic!!

Snake? Snake??? SNAAAAAKE!
Man, you're a good teacher. From the verbal explanations to the visual ones--editing included--this video is great. You touch on simple yet crucial stuff, like straight edges to guide a cut or "remembering the 1/2" width," all in the flow of your build. Thanks for these videos.
Oh, and dat barn wood tho. Awesome execution keeping the grain (and checking) fluid throughout.
Hey!
first i just wanna say i love your videos!
i get really inspired and just want to make stuff :)
i was woundering if you could try to make a Headboard for a bed?
Best regards
Kristian from Norway
Zer0Company Thank you! Actually, I made a headboard last year, you can find it at ua-cam.com/video/09PWmou6f3E/v-deo.html
I dont know how i missed that.. Great video! :)
I got an idea to make something uniqe that i haven`t seen before, its a pouf with cooling storage... so you could store your beer close to your sofa, (sounds lazy i know). what do you think of that, would it be too big of a project or not "safe" enough because of cooling elements inside a pouf?
Again thanks for directing me to that Headboard video
Best regards
Kristian
I can't believe what you just made. A big congratulations, such an inspiration!
have you ever hurt yourself REALLY badly while you were making something?
Great video Bob. I love how it just looks like a wooden base and that you can't really tell that there are drawers. I may have to build one similar one of these days. I may do another long drawer coming out the end of the bed too.
What and where did you get that cool guide? Looks like a drywall T measurement ruler but where and what is that connects to your Circular saw. GATTA GET ME ONE OF THOSE!
Got it! Got it! Thanks for post!
With the right tools you make it look soooo easy, how I wish you could come over and do a few bits of furniture like that at my house..... A storage bed is one of them.... Well done had fun watching you make it with such ease...
I wish you could show how to make a loft bed with storage cubes as stairs o.o that would be aweeeessssoooooommmmeeeee! Not a lot of good videos out there on how to make your own. help
Great video. Really cool modular construction using all readily available and cheap material. Anyone could do this with basic tools. The barn wood was a great touch.
i am a teenage girl with no building experience, why am i watching this video XD
+Gretchen VonEpp Hopefully it inspires you to make something that you need!
You can make it later when you are grown up.
I'm an even younger suburb (with no experience) Boy without a saw in my house and probably one drill but I'm still absolutely addicted to I like to make stuff videos
+Gretchen VonEpp Same. I don't know either. But I like crafting stuff.
I'm not a teenager but I'm also a girl with zero building experience and I found this fascinating! I like making stuff. and I may or may not try building something like this! Girls can build stuff too. ;P
Wow, I like how you made the bed. My parents made a headboard for their king sized bed. They used a standard door that had tiny cracks and was sitting in the basement. Since the door occupied space in the basement, they decided to construct it as a headboard for the bed. It turned out great! I really liked this video and will recommend it to my dad who would have an idea if he were ever to construct something like this.
Hey Bob, where did you get that saw guide from? I need one of this for sure.
+Tiffany Johnson Links to everything in the description.
+I Like To Make Stuff Oh sorry, didn't see that. my fault. I'm going to build a bed frame for my mom & I think I'm going to use this one. Thank you.
Tiffany Johnson No problem at all! Have fun with the build!
Very nice bed you made! These newer latex foam mattress's are so much more comfortable than old style ones, I have latex foam as well and it's the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in. I like the rustic wood.
Thanks! Yeah, I was pretty surprised at how much I'm enjoying the mattress.
Nice
Too bad you don't have the space.
I started building my own base on your design but for a California king. So far it's turned out great. Looking for some nice wood for the exterior. This build is rock solid.
He is sooooooo good but who actually makes the DIY's
Muddy Fox2011 lmao yea you need like a bidgillion tools but it's still cool to see his VIDS incase u wanna make a simpler version or smthing xP 😀
this is so great and informative but i dont think im ever going to make myself a king sized bed. im just glad that should i ever get the motivation to do something like this you have shown me how.
it is so sexy to watch your own husband does this to you lol.
YESSSS that's what I was thinking while watching this!!!!
+Jolie Kalashnik is it wrong? 😟
+sarah owd sorry
I think a nice ad on would be to put another drawer into the small space between the two outside drawer sets, and I mean that by just making another box and size it to fit between them, and add the sliders and then you have more storage, and you design also makes it adjustable so it serves many different size beds. Loved the build. Can't wait to see more videos.
Kurtis Darnell Yeah, that is something that I wanted to do, and still might, but I ran out of time to get it into this video. Thanks!
Great bed, Loved the design. Also thoroughly enjoying your Brainpick series. Awesome work. Big boxes are good, after the kids the cats love them too.
'm RJ , Brazil , I love woodworking as a hobby ... I love your channel on UA-cam ... are always projects a lot of good , easy and very inspiring ... congratulations to continue on!
I'm gonna show my wife this project and see if she wants me to make something like this it's a great project and you make it look so easy thanks for the good stuff Bob
Thanks!
I love watching you build stuff.
I have a kind of vacacious joy watching you have fun. When I was in kindergarten I wanted to play with the blocks, i wanted to build stuff, but the teacher told me that I had to go play in the little kitchen and play with the little fake food. I'm still frustrated, I still want to make stuff.
Wow couldn't have come at a better time. My sister asked me to build her a new bed yesterday. Love your channel!
My wife & I are thinking about getting a king size bed. Hmmmmm , maybe I'll be following your lead & MAKE one !!Thanks for sharing & it is great that this build has a sponsor.
Thank you!!
That turned out badass! Nice job! That white oak was amazing!
Thanks!!
Don't get to mess around with wood as much as I would like, but this is something I will do over the winter months, great video
i can't do woodwork, but this is amazing work. Love the old wood. Keep furniture projects coming please. maybe end tables, chairs, dresser drawers.... great work!
Aloha Bob!! Thank you for sharing! We can’t wait to start an awesome project together! My husband and I are so excited!! We love barnwood and storage is very helpful; we like to keep our things well organize and reduce clutter big time!!
the average person does not have the tools that you do but you made this project look so easy. nice results. I would only want more height to it.
Hi Bob, I don't have any tools or any experience making stuff but its fun watching your videos that you make so honestly, full of great ideas and cheap trustworthy hacks... Keep up the awesome work and keep posting videos !!!
Thank you!!
Nice build and design! This old oak looks absolutely fantastic!
Great job. I was amazed how your design ended up being nearly exact to the king bed frame I made with storage about a 15 months ago. One difference is that I bought eight drawers with hardware from IKEA when they discontinued the old Kompartment line of closet storage. The draw boxes plus hardware were only $9.99 each so I really couldn't pass up that deal. Nice work!
A friend has been hounding me to make her son a twin bed with storage so your vid was a good motivator.
I'm a new subscriber and really enjoy all your videos! I'm going out to get cheap project materials tomorrow, just dipping a toe in the water, but I plan to work my way up to making my own furniture. Thank you for filming and explaining your projects. :) It's really inspiring for those of us who haven't been exposed to the information or can do attitude. I especially enjoy that you encourage your kids to help while staying safe. Happy making!
Watching the way you make king size bed was very usefull....I could make one for my family...thank you.
seriously beautiful look with that barn wood man...I've got some tool envy right now
Totally loved this project!!!! I think the barn wood really added some style to the project!!! Fantastic job!!!
That barn wood is BEAUTIFUL!!
Love the design. I have made a bunch of beds. This brings back the memories....
I loved watching the making of this bed and other furniture
Just about to refurb a bedroom, and this has given me a great idea for using some old scaffold boards I have 👍 Thanks 🙂
That's great stuff! Thank you for posting. One thing that you might consider is to either route or use a jigsaw to cut slots in the solid part of the ply (the drawer box tops), so that the mattress can breathe freely. Depending on your environment, you might get mould otherwise. Best wishes, Evangelos
love to see a video of all the tools you use, you are gifted
Hey, I recognize those bar clamps, they're definitely Pittsburgh clamps, love those things, so cheap and useful,and you can't go wrong with a lifetime warranty!
Loved the video. Going to start up my own community woodshop to allow others a chance to do it as well.
Can't watch videos like this. Just like craft videos, at the end inevitably I'm all ooooh, I want to do that!
Awesome bed. Going to have to check out the mattress place, thanks.
Nice job Bob. The barn wood gives it a cool rustic look. I enjoyed last weeks podcast as well.
The barn wood really works well with the project!!! Looks amazing!
props to you bro. This must have taken you like 10 hours to complete this masterpiece that you made. Good work
I have to say I loved the way it turned out. Also had to leave a comet as it looks like there is another Sterling that is a fellow maker.
It must be so nice to be so talented in creating things! I would love to have the skill and resources to decorate my home with things I made
Looks amazing. I'm planning on making a king sized bed as well as beds for my boys when we move into the new house I'm constructing. This was awesome. Thanks.
Dude you are the man!! Very helpful info for a newly married couple. Big ups
+gabriel orozco Thanks, and many congratulations!!
Very nice! Good job on the build and the verbal breakdown as you put it all together! Good tips and problem solving!
Thank you! That's my goal!
what a beautiful project, very well built and I love the Oak barn wood faces you used. marvellous
I really like the same wood plank is used for all 3 drawers, makes it look continuous.
Amazing project video. I built a queen size bed frame myself with just a circular saw. Wish I had a shop with more tools. It would've made things much easier.
Oh man, that's an amazingly simple and efficient design. Thanks for the great build video!
Love how you wrapped it with the reclaimed wood. Great job!
