My son is growing, and we are no longer worried as much about him rolling out of a "big kid's bed" during the night, so we are upgrading his floor mattress/bed to a full on twin bed, raised off the ground. Everything is reused from the project or from something else I had on hand.
It uses 1x8 preprimed pine from the big box that I had already used for the floor mattress, through bolts and pocket screws for the hardware. And everything else is what I had on hand, too.
All in all, this project cost a grand total of $0. We bought new bedding... but does that count? Ha!
It took me about 10 hours of total build time in one afternoon/evening (and working late into the night!) and then another 2 hours of sanding and painting. Not bad!
I will admit that I got frustrated with the bolts, as the epoxy squeeze out and some small mistakes along the way almost made me quit. But, in the end, it turned out great!
This isn't really a how to make a bed, but I do hope it helps you get some ideas if you are looking to do the same thing.

A caminha ficou uma graça! Eu que gosto de móveis branco achei que combinou com o quarto. O melhor é juntar seu hobby com a economia de fazer a própria cama. Parabéns!

Hey Dude, you did a great job on that bed. Especially with reclaimed materials! Hey at one point you had four different planes on the bench, would you mind doing a short clip of how your different planes are set up, and what you use them for? I apologize if you've already done something like that, and I just haven't seen it. Cheers, Scott A.

Nicely done. I enjoy seeing what you can do with a limited tool set

Thanks, man! For sure, this isn't simple, but if you have a way to cut, drill, and smooth accurately and get a finish-ready surface, this is definitely a limited tools project.

Hi A great use of old materials and a nice finished bed. I do not want to offend you but the video was much improved by the sight of your beautiful girlfriend/wife.
