Yes! Rock and Roll Mcdonalds!!! My bedframe is sitting my in my garage (looking perfect) but now I'm scared to mortise in the hardware. Thanks for this super helpful tutorial.. I'm gonna rout that SOB tomorrow morning. Your awesome! Keep up the great work!
Great video, thorough explanation. Your side rails seemed wider than 3/4", which is all I can find at box stores (except for framing lumber which I don't think you want to use). This makes routing the mortises very tricky. Can you provide what dimension lumber you use for the rails and where to find it? Thanks!
Correct, my side rails are always 1" thick because 3/4" is not sufficient, but the big box stores don't carry thicker than 3/4". The walnut in this video was purchased from a local discount materials warehouse, and the cherry was via Craigslist. Your best bet for good hardwood will often be local places, but again that depends alot of where you live. If you can't find local resources, Woodcraft stores do a pretty good job of stocking a variety of quality lumber in different dimensions, or I've also ordered from the Woodworkers Source website, which ships lumber to your door.
Yes, check the video description. They're a fairly speciality item so home depot, Lowe's, and Ace don't carry them in my experience. Only in person store you might find them at is Rockler woodworking, but I always just buy mine online.
Yes, I just get construction lumber 2x4s or 2x6s. Usually plane them down to leave nicer finish. Often I'll screw them together in kind of a lattice formation to make a stronger unit/easier transportation.

@@dinkles_woodshop That helps a lot, thank you so much for the guidance on this!!! ❤️
This is really useful
Can you link to any brackets? I'm not finding then on the HD website. Thank you!!! 😁

I have missed Dinkle in my life!
Aww I'm glad to be back!
did you make your own slats?
Yes, I just get construction lumber 2x4s or 2x6s. Usually plane them down to leave nicer finish. Often I'll screw them together in kind of a lattice formation to make a stronger unit/easier transportation.
I hope you make more videos. Love the outfit. Do you have a facebook?
Thanks :) and no Facebook here, I'm just on RUclips and Instagram.
Constructive comment: the music is way to loud and distracting. I had difficulty in understanding you. I gave up.
this intro could not be more annoying
