    A piece of furniture to be proud of indeed, Alex. This is a very classy and timeless piece, that I really do feel, could be passed down through generations. The use of walnut was also 👌

    Excellent work, Sir! Beautiful and sturdy. I just found out two days ago I'm going to be a grandfather. My granddaughter is in the baby oven 12 weeks now. So excited. I definitely want to make a family heirloom "GrandPa-made" crib for her. Thanks for the inspiration. That domino tool seems as if it is a very handy piece of equipment. I've been cutting mortises and tenons by table saw, drill, and chisel, but with al the slats needed, it might be an excuse for a brand new tool. Was it difficult to master that tool? Thanks for posting and sharing. I'm jumping onto SketchUp right now. Wish me luck.

    Beautiful build. Just a few questions since it’s been a while since you built it.
    1-is putting crib over vent a problem? 2-I’ve wondered about tapping directly into wood versus an insert w threads. Are u happy w your choice? 3-wheels come to mind for access and cleaning Behind crib. What made u choose a base versus wheels? 4-when are u doing a shop tour?

    • @BevelishCreations
      @BevelishCreations  4 роки тому

      Thanks! I’ll try to answer these questions the best I can. 1) the feet would complete sit on top of the vent, so it’s probably not good for the vent. Plus, there wouldn’t be any circulation. 2) I’ve taken apart and put this crib back together 5 times now and have not had any issues with the tapped threads. Though for a peace of mind, I recommend putting in some epoxy when putting in the bolts just for some robustness. I use threaded inserts most of the time though, and I’m sure they’ll be more robust for a piece that has to be taken apart often. 3) I try to avoid using casters or wheels on my furniture for a couple of reasons. One is aesthetics. The other reason is because it raises the height of the piece, so normally I’d have to reduce the amount of storage space to keep the overall size of the piece the same. It takes some effort to pull the crib out but not impossible. 4) probably never. My shop is always a mess lol

      Vinny Meade the whole thing took a long time because I’d start, then go back and redesign, then do something, redesign, etc... and I had to do some research on the US consumer safety guidelines to make sure what I’m building is following all of the safety laws. On top of that, I kept going back and forth regarding how I’m going to connect the crib and the cabinet. I’d say the whole thing took me roughly 6 weeks. I think if I’m building the same thing again, I can do it within 4 weeks, maybe 3 weeks. Finishing takes a long time too...

      Hey you’ll only need two heights. You can Google any cribs online and they’ll mention the two heights in the crib specs. I’ve found there isn’t a “regulation” height, so they all seemed a little different. I’m guessing because mattresses are all different thicknesses, some are 6” thick and some are 2” thick. What I’d recommend is go to your local Target, west elm, etc and take some measurements. Then reach in and pretend you’re picking up a kid and see how comfortable it is

      Nathan Mash hey, first of all, thanks for checking out the video! Really appreciate it. To answer your question, I get mine from a couple of places. One being Woodcraft and the other is a local place called Woodworx. One sheet of 3/4” at Woodworx is around $150-$160, but is $130ish at Woodcraft. But Woodworx sell Purebond ply that has much more pleasing grain patterns than the stuff at Woodcraft. So I suggest shopping around...not all ply are the same quality. There are also stores that ship full sheets of ply, but due to their size and weight, I think they’re freight shipments, so it gets really expensive. If you have a Rockler or Woodcraft store around you, I suggest checking them out first

    What was the cost of this crib? Did you use PureBond ply? I have a little monster due in June and my wife really wants to help me build the crib and we love this style. Great video man I am excited to see more from you!

      Hayden Barnes thanks! To answer your questions, yes I used Purebond ply. I used 2 sheets of 3/4” and less one sheet of 1/2”. It can be done with less if you don’t put a full sheet on the bottom like I did. I estimated the cost to be around $500 in materials not including hardware, maybe a bit more.

    Hey man, love the design!!! One question though, how did you add motion blur in the video at around 8:15? Thanks!

      Thanks! I use FCPX for editing and there’s a free plugin for doing this. Just drag and drop on top of the timeline and adjust to fit where you want to add motion blur. I found it on a UA-cam video through Google

    I found great plans on the Stodoys website. I think this is a good solution for everyone.
