Finishing the Crib - Adding a sliding changing table
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 окт 2024
- We are both so happy with how this project turned out. The initial design was for a changing table/dresser which quickly swapped over to a crib. But by adding the sliding changing table on top it is the best of both.
When the weather warms up we will eventually be painting and sealing the crib, but until then it will work perfectly for us. One more thing is officially checked off the list as we continue to prepare for our new arrival.

Favourite parts : Lori bringing a coffee to Cody at the workbench, reassuring Irie that she’s not in trouble just a wee bit of glue on the tail. You two are going to be great parents as you’re obviously great partners! It’s no small feat to move across country and build a home and have a happy partnership, the skills that you have will set you up for future generations ❤
Great job on the baby's bed the workbench is nice to have to build things you need for the house but maybe next year you'll have a shelter built to get both you and it in out of the elements and hopefully you'll be able to afford at least a snow plow to put on your 6x6 to push snow away from the house and the mill and workshop because I know you need these for sure on your homestead.
You guys could sell homemade furniture because what I have seen is just beautiful and you guys are a great team can do anything you put your mind to
Wow...just wow! Nothing beats parents making their own baby furniture! Hope it stays n the family for generations to come 😊 Definately made with LOVE!!! love the longer video's 🤗 thank u so much for sharing!!!
I love watching you folks, wish you the best from West Allis, Wisconsin!😃
Just love Cody saying "battery! Hurry!" and my thought was, late stage pregnant lady doesn't do anything "hurry". 😊😊
Very nice kids. I’m sure you could make all the furniture including the high chair and dresser
Nice job on the crib 👍🏼. It probably would help to add an additional box that would bring the mattress up higher while the baby is an infant easier on your back as well vs bending all the way down, just a thought 😉 ❤
Your Alaskan baby will now sleep peacefully in a crib build from wood on your property but also knowing all the Love and devolution put into the building of the crib, terrific workmanship Cody with Loris help..great videos, look forward to your next one❤️
It's so neat-you have a video to show your baby how the two of you made the crib & changing table. 😇Memories😇
Huge project getting all the sawdust out of the house. I had it bad at my place too. It was actually several years of shop vac, sweeping and repeat !!
it looks great you guys did a nice job
Sawdust in the house. Otherwise exceptional job bet it lasts for years. Sending best vibes for an easy delivery when the time comes. Thanks for sharing.
Hello from Cape Cod Massachusetts. The crib came out great and what a great idea with the changing table. Won’t be long now. Good luck and take care✌️🇺🇸❤️❤️
Cody, if your router bit moves when you are routering you need to tighten the bit more. I admire all your work in those cold conditions.
I’m so excited for you two! Baby will definitely change your lives…wonderful!🎉
WOW what a beautiful crib & sliding change table. If Cody can make a tree grow after it’s cut, he can do anything. Excellent job.
Great video the changing table is a nice addition well done you’ve smash it 😊
I am so impressed with your desire and motivation to build your babies bed, and the sliding changing table just tops it off! You both are no dummy! You are both so determined to accomplish anything you set your minds to. I know this will one day be a guest cabin, but I can't wait until it's completely finished and your forever home, is finished as well. I enjoy watching you both move forward with all your plans. You have made it through your first winter, and you should be so proud of yourselves. Just a thought though, thats really deep right now, that will have several months before pulling up on it, maybe you could put a drop box in that would raise bottom of crib up about a foot or so, to keep from bending so far down, and also less draft from floor. But you have to decide that, it looks great. I bet a stain and varnish will really bring out the wood grain. Love it.
Looking great that's a very special crib. Laurie whens baby coming? Exciting time.
Thanks, great work wont be long now best of luck. ✌🏻👊🏼
The crib turned out AWESOME!! 💙🩷💙🩷
Great job 🇬🇧😊
The crib and changing table came out awesome. I had my kids by c-section and no way could bend over that far down. Even a natural birth, would think that is going to be hard to do. Maybe do a small drop in like the changing table for new born stage? My daughter had a play pen that had that and it was awesome for first few months. Anyway, love how it turned out.
Hey guys, thanks for the next update. Crib looks great, love the sliding changing table. WAY better than a store bought alternative! Hope the weather is being kind to you at the moment? Stay say!
end grain acts like a straw when you apply glue to it. it sucks it up and that is a good thing. if you wait about 5 minutes and then apply another round of glue you will get a better glue joint. just a little tip. you two are doing a great job.
That's such a wonderful project! And a great start for your baby! You said paint it, or maybe stain it?
Great job! I love the legs on there and the sliding changing table. A great way to save space. i am impressed!!!
I’m really impressed with your accomplishments constructing baby furniture that hopefully wil be passed to the next family generations.
Very nice job on the crib build!!!
This is so awesome. Such a good design. Bit of advice from one Mama to another....crib close by at first...then a little farther away a little later on.
You need one of those pocket drill things it drills a hole side ways you can screw it in for the corners dont know the name of it very good tool to use you are a good carpenter as i have said before i wouldent paint it baby will bite the top or sides better to stain it
Like toattly awesome job on the crib guys. I would like to suggest some wheels so be easy to roll. Thxs for sharing
Great Job. If I could find my Palm sander I'll send it to you.
Awesome work guy’s 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Yay!! Keep shining and sharing your work ❤
Looks like I see a biscuit joiner in your future to make edge glue ups easier and more accurate using less clamps?
❤ Cody an Lorie you to have just made an heirloom piece of furniture to pass down for generations and them tell the story of you making it Im hoping you make one for each of your children so each one has one to pass down and tell there stories
Your talents amaze me an i love how much of a perfectionist you are .i perfer stsin over paint myself
I do have a question for you thou are you going to make Lorie a couple pull out shelves under it to hold diapers and onesies in ?
God bless you to
You are so right! 😊
Amazing work you two. Very impressed!
I was thinking y'all were putting the legs the other side up to make it fit the angle of your a frame house. It might have made it more stable but if y'all were not keeping it against that wall I don't know how it would have worked if it would stick out further than edge of bed or not
The crib really turned out nice!! Love it!!!😊
Great job Cody and Lori. Love your videos and this was great.
Great job😊 it's beautiful 😍
What a wonderful gft fir your baby AND it's been recorded so he/she can see what awesome and loving and smart parents you are❤❤❤
You need a battery-operated leaf blower to blow the sawdust of your workbench.
👍👍👌✌️
What a fantastic bed for your little Blessing!! Wonderful Job!
Beautiful professional job!
Wow that’s an awesome crib and changing table!
Love what y'all are doing good job Cody
And lori you look so cute ❤❤❤
Love the crib and changing table all in one. GREAT idea, beautiful build. Love your videos. Keep up the good work.
Nice job, I love it.
You're woodwork is great.😀 hi Colorado Springs 😀
Excellent 😂🎉❤😂🎉
Working with pine which has a lot of pitch it can build up on cutting edges and in this case in the collet of the router. When you tighten it, it won't grab as well and as you are running it on a board the bit will tend to "walk" out of the collet changing your adjustment by a little or a lot. If you see the brownish build up soak the collet in gas or lacquer thinner either works well, then scrub it with a toothbrush and a Q tip to remove it. Presto, good as new.
I hope you got the Amazon gifts I sent you. I tried to order the cute dresser
What a beautiful job! Love how you did the legs, much higher and Lorie would need a step ladder to reach in.
I am utterly amazed at what Cody has managed to create! I notice that his set of tools it growing steadily and that is very good, but buy a quality tool that will last for years. Better wait than buy low quality tools! And with those tools it is much easier to create something substantial, which you can enjoy making and be proud of the results! I like the crib, which at the same time can serve as a toddlers bed! And the change table concept is weel though out. It is a great activity to work as husband and wife, father and mother to prepare for the time the baby arrives. At least the weather is more and more developing in your favour! Goo luck and success. May the Lord bless and strengthen you as you await your firt child!
Great craftsmanship 👏👏👏👏
Absolutely beautiful crib…be proud😊
That bed is so awesome
Very nice when you going to tell us what you having
You guys did such a great job on the baby crib
This crib looks so beautiful
Very nice lucky little one perfect 👌
I love the crib and changing table, very clever! It’s getting exciting now!!
Crib turned out beautiful.
Awesome, perfect for a small foot print. You are getting so good at this stuff. I know you are going to be busy very soon with the baby but next winter and maybe late summer the things you will be making for your family will be great. Next maybe the wall behind the crib area and if you get the closet end wall up to block drafts from the door being opened to the crib.
Love your journey thanks for sharing with us all.
Such a blessing you will be to your baby. Teaching them so much.
I think you're going to need more than one diaper. 😁
How about casters on the bottom of crib to move around easily
Wow awesome job guys
Nice work Cody.
Nice crib! Very creative! ❤
I wood put fire wood where the closet is just going in the door .
Awesome job, working together on this project! You may want to rethink painting it. Along about 6-8 mo, when they start standing up, they may also begin wanting to chew the side rails of the crib. May have to do some research as to what is recommended. Again, well done!
Good job looks good
Wonderful design for the changing table on top of the crib. Will you clear coat it or stain or paint the crib a color? Beautiful wood work.
I’d rethink the crib legs. Once the baby start’s roll or standing that crib will definitely tip over.
What a great idea for the crib and changing table. I would have put the legs on with the wide edge on the bottom, makes it more stable.
Wait, so you don't use your generator to charger your batteries? If you run directly from your generator isn't that just a waste?
We turn on the generator and run the tools directly off the generator. The inverter is always plugged into the generator and charges whenever it’s on.
Flip the legs over, maybee that will work?
Why be rude if you dont like the channel dont watch.
Good job guys the crib is looking very good
Beautiful crib! Love the way you two work together, it reminds me of when my husband and I did the same many years ago.
That's going to be just beautiful crib great job guys and every time you guys ether take or put the baby in your guys are going to think we made this for ourselves and its going to last years great job
❤❤❤❤❤
Congrats on the baby but I’m not at all interested in watching you build a crib inside. I’m interested in your lifestyle and building your house.
Great job with the crib. Keep it up!
Have you picked up your package yet they are at the post office and need to be picked up many blessings
i sure hope one of your next projects is to get a garage /shop built this year.....you sure need it so you can keep all the crap out of the house not to mention storage space...oh and nice job on the crib...will last many life times
Good job. Looks great.
so how newborn outfits do have because as a baby you might be changing them many times a day
Great job on the baby crib🫂🫂
guy you should have a pin nail gun so you glue pin nail it together

Beautiful job!
