Watched a slew of vids before I came across this.Got tired of seeing "easy" DIY vids that required a couple K worth of shop tools... Excellent!

Thanks Craig, Made this bedframe this weekend. Added a middle support but it took 8hrs from start to finish, that included staining and varnish. Wife loves this bed. Thanks again you are awesome!!!!

2019 I build this bed frame to the exact measurements he had and it’s great, very firm and just a way upgrade to the crap I had before! Thanks for the video my guy truly appreciated it!🤜🏽🤛

Thanks for the video, great design. built this bed from this video 6 years ago and still have it as a guest bed. I used bolts to hold the bed rails, headboard and footboard together so it could be taken apart and moved. It also fell apart on me at one point so I pulled it all apart and added wood glue to each joint. Also included a 2x6 cap on top of footboard and headboard that overhangs by 2 inches on each side.

I just build this exact bed today. All I can say is THANK YOU. Thank you for posting this video and giving the lumber to buy and the measurements. It turned out great, I just cut the legs down a little bit to sit the whole bed lower and added some supports in the middle to stiffen up the slats that the mattress sits on. Great project.

Used your design, worked like a charm. Followed Mr. Waite's advice and put the center support down the middle (got kids who jump in beds and heavyset relatives). Good Job Craig!!

I built this bed back in January of 2015! Upgrading to a king and probably going to alter this design to fit a King and build it again. Sturdy as hell and giving the queen frame to my sister. Can't recommend this design enough. Looking at one of Ana White's... but I think I prefer the joint design in terms of strength on this one. May do a combination, and go with a more "aesthetic" headboard, but man this has been a great bed.

On the foot of the bed the 19.5" seem short so I went 20". Also, I ran a 4x4 center beam from the footboard of the bed to the headboard to support the mattress support boards (1x10) so it won't sag in the years to come. Excellent bed!!!

Wow just built this it's great thanks alot man. People are already asking us to build them one ha. We burned ours instead of stain.

Built double bed using same method and it turn out to be very good bed. Did some few changes to make it more strong. Thank you!

Thanks. Just built it this morning. 80 bucks in lumber from the Lowes. Looks great.

This is absolutely amazing and inspiring. I have been interested in doing a carpentry project and this will be my first. Great job and thanks so much!!

Mr. Tanguy, You are a superb teacher. Rich

Logré hacer dos camas tomando como referencia este diseño. Le hice algunas modificaciones, pero igual me resultó un producto resistente . Le cambié la unión de los largueros al cabezal y la piecera por tornillos y tuercas lo que permite desarmarlas para su traslado sin mayores inconvenientes. Muchas gracias.

That was a great Idea. I biult one myself with your plans and it came out great. THANK YOU.

Nice job Craig. I'm going to build one this week. Thanks for sharing your talent.

Great build. I'm going to make one for my guest bedroom.

Great video man. Simple. Fast. Easy. Congrats

very nice video my friend you helped a lot of people including me thanks ...

Great plans easy to follow but i changed them for make a King size bed frame. I have also lower the side rails because at a total of 19" from floor to top of rail i think is to high, and have it at 17.5 inches because short people will cut the blood off to there legs when sitting on the side of the bed at 19 "! I also changed the 2x2 Square and made them a full 2x4 for support for mattress support on side rails. I also changed out the 2x4 for head board legs and foot board to 2x6 for more support. I also used Deck screw's as reg wood screw's will work there way out from tossing and turning and other thing that happen in a bed. Greta design...

great video. loved the speed and no bologna. great job. thank you.

Nice I like it ... the way you did it I think I can do it . Thx 👍🏼

Awesome work. Love the sped up video too, gave me info and a good laugh.

I just finished making this bed turned out great thank you so much for this video

Awesome work. Detailed explanation, i will try this. Thanks for sharing.

I also added a 2x3 down the center for some extra support. Long side vertical.

Hey Craig I just wanted to personally thank you for the simple instructions, you helped me alot I build this bed myself for me and my wife and I must say I love it even my daughter loves to sleep on our bed aswell.I felt very accomplished when i built this its pretty sturdy but the middle just needs one more 1x10 because theres a gap. but thanks so much I hope you post more cool vids . -Chris

Thanks for the video.i will make like this. Its true its inexpensive.very nice and simple. I like this.

I'm using this for my bedroom. Thanks for posting!

I still watching this video 2019 . 😍

Thanks for this video! It helped me a lot by building my own bed!

Vry nice and clean . Loved it . Thank you

Beatifull and easy. Great job! Thanks.

Very nicely done!

I bet it's going to need support in the middle. Other then that this is so the look I was looking for thanks for the video

Great job... ill never buy a bed again! Ill build just like that.

excellent video and design thanks for posting

Nice design. Good job.

I just built this Bed using 2 x 6 for the Bed post,,,, Great idea but i have to ask why you would not have the resting area for the long rail for side rails on inside of Frame??? For better look's and not have the L shaped corner for the bed..... Took less than 6 hours from start to finish, with staining..... P>S i added a 2x4 for support from Head post to foot board ,so the lat's are resting on them for extra support.... I am 6'3 weight 260 and can jump on the bed and it don't fall threw.... Try to find that at a box store for under $110.00

You make it seem so easy ...

Great stuff. Love this frame. Now I need some wood and a bottle of bourbon.

very helpful!! thank you!!

Excellent style may I have to follow as good idea as 100 %

I'm gonna make one! thanks for the video!

very well done my friend, thumbs up, ha,ha.

Nicely done sir. Appreciate how you speed it up too... Will look for your video on how to put a workbench together in 8 minutes or less soon.

Great job,well done,bravo.

Nice work.

Beautiful! Congrats!

nice work brother...

Thank any way! I stilll love it.

Can you do a video on a twin size bed frame or, just give me the measurements? I appreciate your video. It is awesome, easy to understand and follow. Thank you very much. Keep up the good work.

Well i actually clapped too while everyone was clapping in the background,lol good vid bro.

Nicely Done!

Great job! Thanks!

really very nice bed thxx

This might sound stupid bc of what the video is about but what brand garage door opener is that? How fast it went up is crazy compared to most.

Loved it . Thank you

I see your buddy 🐶was “helping “ you.

Nice job

I love this design! Thank you! I hope you Don't mind but I used these videos to make 2 of them. I made a full for my daughters room and a queen for out spare room. I'd like to make a King size for me, but Im not as handy as you and making it lists and could use some input. I like the height and everything else I'm just wondering what width I'd make for a king. Do I just add 6" to the width of the queen?

Done the bed, great thx

Would have been better if you would have put the measurements or did a step by step of what u were doing.

Barato i facil gracias camarada🛌

Nice job!

Do you have a video or, dimensions and wood used for a twin bed frame? Awesome video. Thank you so much.

How sturdy would it be if I used bed rail brackets or bolts to attach the side rails to the posts? I wanna be able to take the bed apart for moving.

Very nice. Does it have much flex or sagging in the middle?

I put 2x4 on rails for added strength, the 1x1s did not work

Cool bed build me one

Great bed project Craig .. but since I am a girl I need details on how to cut and put together any way to get written instructions... thanks

Hey Craig, What size screws did you use?

Congratulations on the project. What wood you used in the construction of the bed? Best regard's

I built mine, great vid

!Felicitaciones! esta fabulosa y facil de hacer. Te pido permiso pera copiar tu trabajo.. ?puedo hacer una como la que haz hecho? !me encataria hacer una igual! Gracias, muy buen video, de nuevo Gracias.

I would put another 2 support beams under the main support beams--just for safety sake--but that is just me.

can this bed be made in a full size bed, and if so can you please give me the measurement of a full-size I really like this layout

just finished my build. my question is whT did you used to fasten the rails to the head and foot board? I used 2.5in deck screws and find it rocks just a bit. Do you think adding a few more will lock it up better?

Funny at the end round of applause

Could you possibly give me the dimensions for a twin bed frame and the lumber needed? Awesome video, Craig. Thanks so much.

Parabéns, muito simples.

Parabens ficou otima

i rely liked it ... i will build it :D

Hello my uncle is going to build this for me. He wants to know what type of lumber you used or suggest using and what size nails do you use? Thank you!!

I wanna build the same bed just in Twin-XL 39''x 80'' size, can you or someone help me out with this pls??? I just need the same cut list just for the twin xl 39 x 80, would really appriciate the help with this! thanx!

Thanks. I just made this today. Did you stain it or paint it?

Dogs: They always come help when the job is close to finished..

Could you tell me what year this was please, your timber seems so cheap compared to us in the uk really nice bed thanks

nice bed, thank you for posting. Was wondering what finish you used, stain, varnish etc?

Awesome!!

lmao, you deserve a thumbs up just for 7:15

Hi Craig , how's the bed holding ? In my humble opinion it looks under reinforce ... could you please share any improvements?

i like to make this but no headboard. what should i not get? but at $97.00 its a great price for a real wood frame bed. thanks for sharing

I want to make this into a twin for my son, I'm a single mom who happens to be very handy, but I need to know the measurements for a(twin)frame. and was the measurements quoted before the video the actually bed frame, or was it a different measurement, after you cut. you were going to fast Lol !!!!but I noticed that you didn't take long at all. and how do I get a saw like that can I rent it from a hardware store. could I use an old school saw and sanding tools to get the same results.

Great build! Can you estimate how much it was for the lumber?

no sanding to smooth out the wood ? what grade lumber did you use ?

I want to create something similar, except a little hutch to place things among-st the bedframe. Also want to try to create a lazy man bedframe. If you know what I mean.

question Graig, How strong is this bed and is it a quiet bed/ dosnt make noise?

Hey I got a question. Im building the same in a full size frame. I mistakenly bought 2x3 whitewood/white pine for slat support. Barely noticed till I got home lol. Will it be fine to use it for slat support or should i get another fir 2x4? thanks.

you could have taking all of your measurements after you built it. For those who don't have a saw. lowes do cuts for you , It will be two trips to them.
