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!

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 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!!!!

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.

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!!

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

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.

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!!!

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

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.

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!

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

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!!

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.

You sir taught me something today. Thank you for posting this video.

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.

Great video man. Simple. Fast. Easy. Congrats

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

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

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

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

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

Beautiful! Congrats!

Beatifull and easy. Great job! Thanks.

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

Mr. Tanguy, You are a superb teacher. Rich

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

excellent video and design thanks for posting

Very nicely done!

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

Nice design. Good job.

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...

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

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

Great job,well done,bravo.

Vry nice and clean . Loved it . Thank you

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

Thank any way! I stilll love it.

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

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

Nice job!

Nice work.

I still watching this video 2019 . 😍

You make it seem so easy ...

really very nice bed thxx

Parabens ficou otima

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

I built mine, great vid

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.

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

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

Nice job

Done the bed, great thx

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

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

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

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

Awesome!!

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

I had a question if I wanted to make it to a king size that means that on the ones that measures 57 long on the 2×8 and 2×6 I would have to extended to 73 long right pls answer my question

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.

!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.

Barato i facil gracias camarada🛌

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?

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?

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

Craig, I love this design would it work for a king?

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.

Hey Craig, What size screws did you use?

Hey Craig did you build the side table also ad what would be the dimensions for a double bed

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

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

Can u pls tell me what are the measurements after cutting and finish building pls

I see your buddy 🐶was “helping “ you.

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.

How is it holding up one yr later? And how much did it cost in total?

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

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

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

what are the brands of your power tools? thank you

What inch screw did you use?

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

what finish did you apply ?

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!

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

how long did it take
