    That turned out really good. I'm about to start my sons because he has a small room and now old enough to play game consoles so I'm going to build him a raised bed with a small wrap around couch under it that we already had so he has his own gaming area.

  • @Thornspyre

    Ive watched a lot of bed making and loft bed making videos and i notice you americans often favour a solid sheet base for the matress to go on top of (in this case MDF)
    Im not sure if any of you even realise, but a matress should have the ability to draw air in from the underside, it keeps the matress dry (you sweat more than you realise in bed) and cuts down on the various creepy crawlies that make their homes in such places, they prefer it to be a little damp
    So anyway, really if you do insist on using sheets like MDF or Plywood, you should either drill quite a lot of holes in it, like say one a big (half inch) hole every 6 inches or so, or better yet use slats for the base instead of sheets, thick ply or solid pine work well, i probably dont have to say dont use MDF slats
    Then as you move around on the matress while sleeping, you draw fresh dry air into the matress cutting down on the nastiness i mentioned earlier
    This is not just a matter of cleanliness, its a matter of health, especially for kids where it can lead to respiritory issues, matresses may not feel damp, but inside there is moisture, the only way to keep it dry is to have ventilation (and those little vents some manufacturers build into the side of matresses are really not enough)
    Dont just make beds, make healthy beds

    • @SSLFamilyDad
      @SSLFamilyDad  5 лет назад +1

      You know, this is a great point and thinking back it would have been ok for me to use some 1x2 slates for the base also. Great idea, thanks!

    I love the amount of energy you put into every day. The room is coming along nicely. While I do agree that the bed is solid and secure, you missed a perfect opportunity to use a half lap joint. Solid and simple. Thank you for sharing your life with us.

    • @SSLFamilyDad
      @SSLFamilyDad  7 лет назад +1

      You are totally right. I thought about a half lap or using a box joint but when it came down to it I decided to go the easy route:) I think it will still hold up pretty well.

    Hey man this is just some advice I am use to building aquarium stand and aquarium can weigh from 100 of pounds with no water to 100,000 of pounds with water and substrate rocks and everything else in it and also the fact that it is live pressure so the stand for it should be able to hold atleast 3-4x the weight of the tank with everything in it so I wouldn't rely on the screws on the bed for the beams you should put some actual support beams under the wood that are screwed into the pre existing beam but hey other than than that great job

  • @DarkMoonDroid
    @DarkMoonDroid 5 лет назад +1

    I think I would make those stairs with a smaller rise.
    If you search around for the kind of bins that you want first and make sure they are a good size rise for the occupant, then you can build around them instead of trying to find bins to fit the space. That's harder.
    Turns out, banana boxes made great bins and are the perfect rise size for me and they're free!
    Good job!

  • @jomaquiopatokong8328
    @jomaquiopatokong8328 2 года назад

    What I didn't like is the gap between the post and the wall. You should cut the top of the pole like "L" cut. So it will fit and touch the wall and it will also add huge strength to carry the horizontal frame of the bed.. what I like is how you make the stairs.

    Hi. This is really impressive. Would you be able to make a video that walks us through the planning process of something like this? Did you use a computer program to lay things out, or draw a rough sketch? I'm looking to do some home projects, and I'm pretty handy, but never know quite how to plan before I start and end up making lots of changes on the fly.
    Thanks for the great videos! Your kids are going to love this loft!

    • @SSLFamilyDad
      @SSLFamilyDad  7 лет назад +1

      This is always my challenge as well. I have used Google Sketchup for projects like this before but then I just end up changing things once I get into it anyway. there is nothing like seeing it going together to help visualize the final product and that inspires upgrades and changes on the fly. I prefer to just start working and I get my wife in to bounce ideas off of along the way. That seems to be the best way for me. I will show some sketchup stuff down the road though as that can be a great tool to get started.

  • @hudsonriverlee
    @hudsonriverlee 6 лет назад +3

    I agree 100% with Inktronics, you should have notched out the support post and not rely on the screws to hold up the weight,. The idea for the stairs is cool. You mentioned how one section supports the other. You boxed in one corner of the support post. Even this is better than relying solely on the screws to hold up everything. I rent an apartment with a huge barn, we cannot screw or nail into any wood surface per the lease. So I must make a self supporting weight bearing system. I plan to use posts as well however they will be notched. Anyhow, enough. You still did an awesome job. I truly liked the video and how you constructed the stairs. I am sure that took some planning.

    • @Moldoro
      @Moldoro 4 года назад

    I'm wondering if the plywood you used is 1" or 3/4"? When you were building the stairs...did you build the storage boxes to fit storage bins and if so, did you find a particular bin that fit and where did you purchase them? I would suggest for anyone planning to build the stairs to prime and paint while the plywood is still in sheets before assembly. Thanks and good work.

    • @SSLFamilyDad
      @SSLFamilyDad  6 лет назад

      3/4" plywood. I never pre paint because I like to cover the screw heads and cracks between boards with paint in the final position. Makes everything look like one unit instead of separate boards

    Looks like whether a bed is a Murphy or platform, the preferred method is to affix it to the wall. I have a studio apartment and was hoping I finally landed on a channel that will work for me. Am still watching from a different device. It went from platform and desk to loft - but there's no desk or platform. I'm trying to figure things out. I like the box design - it's something I can do and more likely to work. I didn't like the crawl space you made in a prior video - with a "secret door" - someone could put your daughter in that and have their way with her. She's vulnerable every time she goes under it. I'm too old and disabled to consider that design useful for me.
