  • About how much did all this cost you??

  • Probably between $200 to $250. 

  • I don't have a materials list or a diagram of what we did. I can tell you that we used a standard type wood for the stuff you don't see, and we used pine for the exposed pieces. It has a nice finish. We started with the dimensions of our queen size bed and took it from there. It will help, a bit, if you've got a knack for wood work. Good Luck.

  • @listermint1 Nice job dude! I'm planning on building a platform bed. The pine looked nice stained, did you end up varnishing at all? I'm thinking of using utile as my wood... Although a fair lot more expensive than pine i think it will look nice. (Also a good mahogany substitute)

    Anyways, great job again ;)

  • @theedgemike You can stain it, then varnish it. They also sell stain/varnish in one... I would do it that way. Less work. Thanks and Good Luck.

  • @burtonkidd where did u buy material?

  • @soboliousbflo

    You got a PM!

  • @burtonkidd would love to see a pic of yours. Do you have any to share?

  • @soboliousbflo

    Pretty much.

    Mainly used 2"x4"x8' and sheets of pine 4'x6'x1/2" (pre glued & cheap) and ripped into strips for finished trim work and 1/2" spruce ply for the base. Turned out just as nice, with 2 coats of clear varnish.

  • @burtonkidd Did you use the same materials as he did? Did it come out as nice? Trying to build a king size. Let me know thanks

  • did the same thing last weekend. Spent $90 for material, hardware and beer. :)

  • THANKS FOR THE VIDEO!! I HAVE SOMETHING TO SHOW MY DAD ILL HAVE A MADE OVER ROOM IN NO TIME....

  • Nicely done guy's, I'm considering making my own as well.....
