i get a tiny bit jealous that my relationship with my dad isn't like this. but it makes me extremely happy and hopeful when I see healthy father son relationships like this one. Great dad and as a result a great kid. Love to see it
Remember the feeing so one day If u have the opportunity to have a child u can have that connection u missed as a child remember easy times make easy people hard time make strong people 👍
THE FINEST DETAIL I noticed is where you signed & dated the project and where it was built! My Daddy “ran on ahead of me” 23 years ago & most or all of his creations or upgrades before he passed away, he signed and dated! The simplest things now with my Dad’s signature & dates written on them are my most prized possessions to this day!!! One of my sons lives in Central, La., and we have adopted that practice early on about signing & dating things…… the years fly by but seeing those brings us right back to the time & place each item was done!!! Great form !
Love it it brother! Gotta say man. You can see the pride in your fathers eyes. The longer the video goes on. You can see he knows he did something right.
I'm glad I've got to watch this video, my kid who is almost 18, was telling me that he wanted to buy a new bedframe for his room,..... Now he doesn't need to buy one. Thank you guys, you inspired me. 👍👍
This is for a queen size bed 60" x 80" Also, we're getting a lot of comments about the price of lumber. We put this video out before the Pandemic and at this time the price was right! We know...lumber prices are crippling right now and everyone's feeling it. Hang in there gang!
So if I was going to do a king sized bed 76” x 80” would I take your 65” measurements to 76+5, which is 81” to get the same kind of set up. Or am I not doing that right because your bed is 60” but your measurements are 65”
It looks amazing!! I was wondering how heavy is the frame? Not necessarily how many pounds it is, but is it extremely difficult to move? And how would it be getting it in a doorway?
@@mr.reliable8123 Great question! It's definitely going to be a heavy one! I would definitely be making one of these inside the room it was going into!!! Don't even want to attempt to figure how to get that into the house! 😃
Enjoy every second you have with your dad!!! One day you would give anything for another moment! I loved seeing the enjoyment that your dad had doing that with you!
Great work. Nice project. However, it doesn't matter what you built. It was great to see father and son collaborate so well on a project. Dad...you nailed it. You sir are an inspiration! A beautiful display of teaching and patience. Son...nice to see such respect and admiration on your part following your dad's lead. Nice touch how you signed and dated as well...make sure you remember it for years to come!
I'm glad I found my way back to this video. I'm laying on the bed I made using this video in part as a tutorial. I was very happy I went ahead and purchased a combination square which ended up being much more useful than I had thought it would be. It ended up costing me about $150 CAD for the materials. Thanks for the ideas.
yo! I'm a father to be, and I'm going to steal this and do it with my kids. That definitely has a special feel to it already and I'm definitely looking forward to doing it.
I've watched this video like 100 times over the past few months and decided to make my own. It will be complete tomorrow morning. Can't wait! Love the content guys keep it up! Also like the fact you guys explain everything step by step. Keep up the great work
You got me subscribed because of your relationship with your dad. And im also going to make my son's bed today and this is exactly what im going to follow to remind me in the years to come that we should do things like this often. Thank you and great tutorial.
I'm only in 4 minutes and I have to say thank goodness for these kinda dads. My dad owned a construction company while I was growing up and he taught me everything i know. Perks of him taking me with him to help on sights
Wow, i can't believe this video is 3 years old. You have really come far. Love the dad and son team. From building a bed to now building a house. Brilliant. Lots of love from the UK
love the way you guys showed everything, right from the number of pieces of wood to the thickness and length and every little details. how neat and clear you were right from the start. makes it so easy to understand and build your own bed. thanks a lot. loved it!!!!!!!!!!! 🙂KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK...!
I build designs outta my head and I'm very meticulous about the measurements, symmetry, strength, all the way to fit and finish. I thoroughly enjoyed watching this video you two made. Very informative, well structured and it's always great to see any build that's not done half-assed. I was taught to measure twice, cut once and if my heart isn't into the project fully then don't do it. AWESOME BUILD, hands down!
Nice to see the two of you work together. I have the privilege of working with my twin sons every day. They are now 25, and both work with us in our renovations business. We all work together well. Sure makes for a pleasant work day compared to the years I spent working for impersonal companies. We take pride in our work, and have the satisfaction of standing back at the end of a project together to see the finished work.
Wow I’m just amazed that you and your pops are working together and having fun with out any yelling or fighting that would never happen with my dad lol but hopefully my son and I could do the same… nice job on the bed !
Took me about 8 hours but I’m finally done! Design is great, instructions were really easy to follow along, and the bed is incredibly sturdy. To anyone considering building this, if your not insistent on the varnished finish. You can use a dark stain with polyurethane in it and (with a nice sand) your good to go.
When I stain wood and even with heavy grain such as oak, I use gel stain mixed with the reg stain (Usually to get my desired color) Add mineral spirits to my sponge brush and slowly glide it on for no bubbles. The mineral spirit will cause it to lay flat, yet goes on thick for coverage. Then I poly it also with 2-3 coats with some mineral spirits on my sponge. Me and the hubs made a frame for our bathroom mirror and i stained it. Looks professional.
We made this for my oldest son this weekend. Instead of typical stain we burnt and sanded the trim and left it square since we didn't have a miter saw. It still looks gorgeous! This was out first wood working project! Thank you for posting this. It was pretty easy to follow and made for a fun project 🥰
This was wonderful to watch. I learned more in this one video than I’ve learned in months at work. Also, you’re relationship is a powerful example of a healthy relationship between father and son- much needed in the world. “ parenting is a heroic act if done properly” - the incredibles
Never had a relationship like this with my dad and I wish I had one being I'm in the construction business like you guys are. I am a bit jealous about it but it also makes me look forward to me and my son when he grows up and I can be like your dad. Cheers and love from Illinois, Chicago
Dad to the rescue! Good to see a parent teach his child some good skills! I am assuming that your both related. Good video! Knowledge of true facts and skills are so important to pass on onto each generation!
That's a super sick bed. I'm going to make one! Also, it was so awesome to see a father/son project. I'm going to get my dad to help with my build. You earned a new subscriber, great job.
Thank you, just finished up this project with my 12yr old. He loves his new bed and was really easy to follow along. I am not a carpenter by trade so it was nice to see how well this project flowed together. Thank you for a great Bluzzard day project.
Love this! I am moving and I have wanted to build a platform for the longest. It won’t be floating though. Easy to follow and Dad being easy on the eyes helped a lot too 😉
What a great job you both did. I love the way the two of you work together and would love to see more projects. Everything was explained in detail, love it. Thank You for the tutorial
This video was like deja vu for me. I built one of these 10 years ago on my driveway! My bottom box was made of 2 x 8s. Upper box was for full-size mattress, and I made it of 2 x 4s and sheeted with 1/2" mdf. 2 pieces were joined with a few lag screws for portability. We still have it set up in a bedroom.
When the dad said "you might have to sleep outside if we do t get this finished" and he replied "atleast we have a place" tells me everything I need to know about what kind of people they are.
@@livinwitwilliam9184 good, it shows they are thankful for what they have and appreciate thing rather than complaining about what they don't have. These are good people.
@@just_a_guy13 no, those are overly good people to the point it could make them a bad person instead. Yes, there’re some people who are like that, and didn’t get into the wrong side of that statement, but most of the people who say that are overly good people to the point it makes them a bad person. For example, imagine if that person had a kid, they were eating and the kid didn’t like the food. They tell their kid “there’re starving people out there who would love to have that food. So eat it right now and don’t waste it”. Yes, there’re starving people out there, and it’s sad, but they’re not you. I was watching a video once, where some guy saw a meme about this exact situation, and he mocked the people who say that by saying “haha, remember, just because there’re people who have it worse than you, means that you’re never, ever allowed to feel uncomfortable or that you’re in a bad place”, and he’s right
@@markherrera7640 I get what you're saying but you are just being contrary for the sake of argument. That's weak. Stop doing that. It will only bring you grief.
i love and respect the relationship you and your father have. so genuine, and i can see how proud he is written on his face. the looks in between stone expression. cherish these moments. you won’t get a second back 🖖🏼
That was a really great project, I'd have to adjust it a little, adding more wood underneath or I'd never find the cat again, she would take one look at that and think she was in heaven... great work guys!!
Love the build, I think the star was the square and it's utility in the hands of an experienced tradesman. Pocket holes done earlier and the assembly sanded after piece sanding could have the miter outer corner neatened up and micro rounded for ankle protection. Some discrete rubber pad feet would stop any rocking on an unevenly tiled floor and for tech level masters a hidden induction charger installed from the bottom of the capping board would allow for a phone to be placed there and charge while you sleep.
I am by no means a Carpenter but I followed every instruction. I almost messed up my back doing it all by myself LOL but i must say it turned out great. Thank you guys so much for the details in the description it really helped.
Wow! Love how you and your dad have this relationship! My son just asked me to help him. He will be using your project to build his. And I will be helping with the staining part pf the project ☺️☺️❤
Absolutely fantastic i had about 7 videos on making a platform bed they are now deleted , i am going by your build when i start mine, well done guys first class a fan in UK....Subscribed
Nothing terrible about this video but I've seen better. More than one better. I don't know what 7 videos you've watched but I just learned at least as much from a 3 min vid (ruclips.net/video/M5258viSFSM/видео.html) as I could from this 42 min vid.
Nice build guys. Im going to build the exact same thing but, for the exposed boards im going to wire wheel the soft grain out so it gives an aged/barn wood look to the stained timber. Thanks for being so detailed in the cuts and assembly.. that will definitely will save me some time. Awesome to see 2 generations of craftsmanship working together. Thank you for taking the time to make this video.
My son and I just completed this bed for him using your video step-by-step, even down to the stain and the LED lights. If I could post a pic of it, I would. Great video...thank you for taking the time to put it together!!!!
I was a pretty diesel skateboarder when I was young and this harkened me back to building ramps with my father. Unfortunately, he passed when I was reaching my prime, but those boxes and ramps kept it alive. Thanks for the video.
Thank you very much for this video. My ten year old son built his last week (with some guidance and assistance from me) and it came out great! I can't thank you enough for all the details, recommendations, and tips. We made his for a full size, but all-in-all your guidance is spot-on. Once again, thank you so much!
What a great video. I’m going to be attempting this build within the next month. I can’t wait. Such a cool design. Thank you for taking the time to teach this 👍
I really wanna be honest but like this helped me a lot, like you and your pops have a good and amazing bond. Me and my pops don't even talk much but like I now know how to build a floating bed. Thanks to you I've learned a lot🙏🏼💯
This is absolutely amazing!! If you don't mind, I am saving this because my family & I have moved to another state & decided to get rid of our present beds (4 beds, to be exact) to making moving a lot easier! We saved an extra trip from San Antonio to Baton Rouge! So actually, if my husband & I can build our bed frames, instead of buying new ones, we can save quite a grip, I believe! This plan for this particular bed looks so much easier to build! Thanks for sharing!!!
It may have been asked, but could I get the measurements for cuts of doing it for a full size bed? I’ve only done a handful of projects with wood and cutting so I really wanna make sure I’ve got everything measured right!
I would recommend turning your try square around so the base is on the meat of the wood when making your marks. Otherwise, it is almost resting on nothing and you could be off with your pencil marks. Jordan, you are one fortunate guy to have a Dad like you do. You will never, ever forget all your quality time together ! I am 70 and lost my Dad when I was 28. I miss our times together. Count your blessings !! This is the last video I have seen in your series. So I am at 100% now. I look forward to each and every one !
One thing you guys fail to let us know; what size is the bed... it looks like a Queen!!! But it is though!!!??? Great Job; love the details explanations
60" by 80" for a queen size bed I build the frames on my spare time good projects and the results are great king size is 76" by 80" but king size i usually build in the room cause the size of it won't go through the doors
This father/son team … I just fell in love with the interaction; what a breath of fresh air to see them working together. The enthusiasm of the young man and the smile of the father to him, just precious! Now, the project: nice bed and easy to follow instructions; it looks great! The one thing that totally does not match the craftsmanship of the bed making is those lights … you guys need to watch some LED lights installations and best way to hide the lights and just let the glow be the star of the show. Best of luck to you both!
@@karankhaira-nagpal6704 a standard Queen is 60x80, looks like they added 5 1/2 inches to the width to calculate for the width of the boards on each side when building the frame and a little more maybe for some wiggle room. My king bed is 72x80 (kinda weird) so I’m just adding 5 1/2” and cutting to 77 1/2” for the boards wherever they say 65 1/2”. Hope this helps, I’ll let you know if mine doesn’t turn out. Hope this makes sense, lmk if it doesn’t and I can try to rephrase.
Guys thank you so much... just made a king frame using these instructions. I was able to do all this with just a Drill and wood cut to size at the home depot. Few things I learnt on the project 1. Home depot wood advertised as 2 inch thick is only 1.5 inch thick (Messed up my calculations fixed it with some patch work) 2. Could live with 3 pieces of wood as lip without cutting them at 45°
It’s a total different feeling from making something and buying something It feels so good when your pleased with the finish look. That looks just like you said absolutely incredible.Great Job!!! New subscriber.
Made this for our king bed!!! Thank you for the idea and all the hard work you guys put into making this video. Was easy to adjust our measurements. We love our new bed frame!!
@@anthonycook2047 A regular Queen size bed is 60X80. A regular King is 76X80. Whatever measurement he used for the length, we used. For the width, we used 81.5. Use the same addition of measurement we used for the bed frame for the base. Instead of 2X6 for the base we used 2X8 to make the bed sit higher off the floor.
Great Video and shout out to you and your dad for the awesome relationship. Just built this for my daughter following your excellent instructions and we couldn’t be happier
@@righteous1229 mine will just sit there watch me and silently judge me then if I mess up will go now why did you do that when you could have done it like this
I mean my dad would do that if I didnt get his help before i screwed it up. If I had him basically do half the work like he did it would have been fine lmao
i get a tiny bit jealous that my relationship with my dad isn't like this. but it makes me extremely happy and hopeful when I see healthy father son relationships like this one. Great dad and as a result a great kid. Love to see it
You and I both know the Struggle ✊
Same.
Word
Remember the feeing so one day If u have the opportunity to have a child u can have that connection u missed as a child remember easy times make easy people hard time make strong people 👍
Why was i thinking the same thing
THE FINEST DETAIL I noticed is where you signed & dated the project and where it was built! My Daddy “ran on ahead of me” 23 years ago & most or all of his creations or upgrades before he passed away, he signed and dated! The simplest things now with my Dad’s signature & dates written on them are my most prized possessions to this day!!! One of my sons lives in Central, La., and we have adopted that practice early on about signing & dating things…… the years fly by but seeing those brings us right back to the time & place each item was done!!! Great form !
Love it it brother! Gotta say man. You can see the pride in your fathers eyes. The longer the video goes on. You can see he knows he did something right.
Thumbs up for a supportive Dad! Good kid for involving him.
You have an amazing dad and you guys have a great relationship, now my youngest son and I will build this for him. Thank you
That man is dad of the year! Great looking project.
I'm glad I've got to watch this video, my kid who is almost 18, was telling me that he wanted to buy a new bedframe for his room,..... Now he doesn't need to buy one.
Thank you guys, you inspired me. 👍👍
Agreed! This makes me want to build stuff with my dad lol
Oooooooooooooooo9ooooooooooooo9oooooooooo9oooo99ooooo9oo9
This is for a queen size bed 60" x 80"
Also, we're getting a lot of comments about the price of lumber. We put this video out before the Pandemic and at this time the price was right! We know...lumber prices are crippling right now and everyone's feeling it. Hang in there gang!
So if I was going to do a king sized bed 76” x 80” would I take your 65” measurements to 76+5, which is 81” to get the same kind of set up. Or am I not doing that right because your bed is 60” but your measurements are 65”
How is the stability with these beds? My husband os a big & tall man.
Can you just dumb it down for me on the list for a full size bed 😅 I’m honestly just going to take it one step at a time.
It looks amazing!! I was wondering how heavy is the frame? Not necessarily how many pounds it is, but is it extremely difficult to move? And how would it be getting it in a doorway?
@@mr.reliable8123 Great question! It's definitely going to be a heavy one! I would definitely be making one of these inside the room it was going into!!! Don't even want to attempt to figure how to get that into the house! 😃

When my kids and I work projects, we sign and date as well. Love father and kid projects

Is the bed these guys making a double or a king size ?
How did it go?
@gargnificent garg..... It's been 2+ years now, how did your project bed came out?
Just want to add that the way y'all work together shows how dad has been an amazing teacher to an awesome student!
“ we pre drill hole so the ends won’t split” is the best thing I learned!

I am by no means a Carpenter but I followed every instruction. I almost messed up my back doing it all by myself LOL but i must say it turned out great. Thank you guys so much for the details in the description it really helped.
when you sit on the side of the bed is there any tipage?
What size mattress can you fit on it ?
Wow! Love how you and your dad have this relationship! My son just asked me to help him. He will be using your project to build his. And I will be helping with the staining part pf the project ☺️☺️❤
Great summer project for me and my 14 year old this summer. Also...daddy is fine lol, so...that helped.
Absolutely fantastic i had about 7 videos on making a platform bed they are now deleted , i am going by your build when i start mine, well done guys first class a fan in UK....Subscribed
Nothing terrible about this video but I've seen better. More than one better. I don't know what 7 videos you've watched but I just learned at least as much from a 3 min vid (ruclips.net/video/M5258viSFSM/видео.html) as I could from this 42 min vid.
Nice build guys. Im going to build the exact same thing but, for the exposed boards im going to wire wheel the soft grain out so it gives an aged/barn wood look to the stained timber. Thanks for being so detailed in the cuts and assembly.. that will definitely will save me some time. Awesome to see 2 generations of craftsmanship working together. Thank you for taking the time to make this video.
My son and I just completed this bed for him using your video step-by-step, even down to the stain and the LED lights. If I could post a pic of it, I would. Great video...thank you for taking the time to put it together!!!!
You got it David! Glad you guys could tackle it together. We'd love to see it send it over to studpack225@gmail.com for us!
I was a pretty diesel skateboarder when I was young and this harkened me back to building ramps with my father. Unfortunately, he passed when I was reaching my prime, but those boxes and ramps kept it alive. Thanks for the video.
This is exactly what I had in mind to build since recently purchasing a new king size mattress. Great tips and awesome job. Looks amazing.
I love how you and your dad make a great team.
And the bed frame is amazing. Great job
I built mines yesterday it turned out great! Thanks for being their with me the every step of the way. Felt like my dad was really there lol!
Thank you very much for this video. My ten year old son built his last week (with some guidance and assistance from me) and it came out great! I can't thank you enough for all the details, recommendations, and tips. We made his for a full size, but all-in-all your guidance is spot-on. Once again, thank you so much!
Man! That puppy is secure! Good lookin bed!
What a great video. I’m going to be attempting this build within the next month. I can’t wait. Such a cool design. Thank you for taking the time to teach this 👍
your dad gives me league of extraordinary gentelmen vibes😍😍
Totally agree...
Dang 1.8 million views and I have slept on one since I was seven. What a time! Congrats on the video views, the work, and the outcome.
I really wanna be honest but like this helped me a lot, like you and your pops have a good and amazing bond. Me and my pops don't even talk much but like I now know how to build a floating bed. Thanks to you I've learned a lot🙏🏼💯
I can't wait till I can do this I've been wanting to build me a bed frame that's cool
You guys did a phenomenal job with this tutorial!! Literally covered every step!! Thank you so much for sharing!!
That was nice. Sweet carpentry work! You’ve inspired me.
Thank you for showing me how build a floating bed save's me money ! now to build one for each of my three kids..prefect when on a budget...🤘
This is absolutely amazing!! If you don't mind, I am saving this because my family & I have moved to another state & decided to get rid of our present beds (4 beds, to be exact) to making moving a lot easier! We saved an extra trip from San Antonio to Baton Rouge! So actually, if my husband & I can build our bed frames, instead of buying new ones, we can save quite a grip, I believe! This plan for this particular bed looks so much easier to build! Thanks for sharing!!!
Nvm the project...the father son bond is pure 🙏🏾💙
It may have been asked, but could I get the measurements for cuts of doing it for a full size bed? I’ve only done a handful of projects with wood and cutting so I really wanna make sure I’ve got everything measured right!
I’ve never thought of using a clamp to hold a board to square it up and drill it in.... the amount of times that would have helped me 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Yes! You learn something new every day! (Especially on this channel!)
I would recommend turning your try square around so the base is on the meat of the wood when making your marks. Otherwise, it is almost resting on nothing and you could be off with your pencil marks. Jordan, you are one fortunate guy to have a Dad like you do. You will never, ever forget all your quality time together ! I am 70 and lost my Dad when I was 28. I miss our times together. Count your blessings !! This is the last video I have seen in your series. So I am at 100% now. I look forward to each and every one !
Thx for commenting and for binging Don! Appreciate all your comments 👍👍
I like that is a father, son video, keep up the good work dad!
I'm just gonna "Go ahead" and like this video!
Lmao!!😂🤣 same.
Loved the tip about the finishing pads between poly. I just refinished my bedroom set and wish I would have known that tip a week ago 😅 LMAO
One thing you guys fail to let us know; what size is the bed... it looks like a Queen!!! But it is though!!!??? Great Job; love the details explanations
It is a queen size bed! We figured our audience could take the specific size of their mattress and custom fit the build for the best results
@@StudPack any chance you can post what measurements would be needed for a king size bed? Before I go and ruin all my lumber lol.
This would be great to know, for a king size... I’ve been watching a bunch of different videos of king sizes but this one looks great!!
I need king size measurements as well someone please help 😅
60" by 80" for a queen size bed I build the frames on my spare time good projects and the results are great king size is 76" by 80" but king size i usually build in the room cause the size of it won't go through the doors
This father/son team … I just fell in love with the interaction; what a breath of fresh air to see them working together. The enthusiasm of the young man and the smile of the father to him, just precious! Now, the project: nice bed and easy to follow instructions; it looks great! The one thing that totally does not match the craftsmanship of the bed making is those lights … you guys need to watch some LED lights installations and best way to hide the lights and just let the glow be the star of the show. Best of luck to you both!
Absolutely wonderful video from a wonderful family. Thank you all ❤
This turned out amazing! Love amount of details you put into this, has inspired me to start my first project with my dad! Keep up the good work!
I have a California King bed, how do I calculate the measurements so that I can copy what you did with the Queen Size
Did you find any answer? I'm looking for a cali king sizing as well
@@karankhaira-nagpal6704 a standard Queen is 60x80, looks like they added 5 1/2 inches to the width to calculate for the width of the boards on each side when building the frame and a little more maybe for some wiggle room. My king bed is 72x80 (kinda weird) so I’m just adding 5 1/2” and cutting to 77 1/2” for the boards wherever they say 65 1/2”. Hope this helps, I’ll let you know if mine doesn’t turn out. Hope this makes sense, lmk if it doesn’t and I can try to rephrase.
@@connor1199 going to take my stab at it today, I really appreciate your response and I'll get back to you for sure! :)
Someone stubbed their toe on the legs of the bed too many times and said "NEVER AGAIN!" lol
Now you get to stub your knee😃
I have a low floating bed and I always bump my shin area...(my lower leg area)
Now it’s rip shins
Made this and hit my shin a few times in the last year lol
@@thagreatest_unknown2842 does it have a lip like this?
Love how proud your dad looks at you 🙏🏾
Guys thank you so much... just made a king frame using these instructions. I was able to do all this with just a Drill and wood cut to size at the home depot.
Few things I learnt on the project
1. Home depot wood advertised as 2 inch thick is only 1.5 inch thick (Messed up my calculations fixed it with some patch work)
2. Could live with 3 pieces of wood as lip without cutting them at 45°
Thanks for the stand and sit test on the side of the bed lmaooo I actually was actually surprised he even did that I was like "YESSSSSSS"
Time stamp for it? I can't find it
@@caem3797 22:39
Dope vid👌🏽👌🏽🤟🏽 doing rn...What’s the measurements for the mitor cut it never was specified .angle and length
the Angle is 45 degrees and the length is just the length of the board!
It's like watching goonzquad but building beds
The playlist just isn’t the same watching this compared to goonzquad
😂😂😂
I was thinking the same thing😂
Was thinking same thing!! Scrolled down to see if anyone else noticed too
I was just about to say that lmao
Amazing result. Great work guys. I was kind of shocked at how much hard work went into creating this effect. Hats off to you.
It’s a total different feeling from making something and buying something It feels so good when your pleased with the finish look. That looks just like you said absolutely incredible.Great Job!!! New subscriber.
I really enjoy what you guys are doing! Keep up the good work,looking forward to future content
Little did they know those masks would soon be super valuable😂
yeah and I threw those two away😢
Dwl😂🤣
@@StudPack what size bed does this frame fit?
@@KL-xe5ec queen
@@StudPack Doh! Live and learn.
Whenever I see a shadow or reflection of a cameraman, I cant stop staring at it
It's not Hollywood man... Maybe you have some nerve damage in your domepiece
@@jonnybee3996 don't we all have nerve damage
@@jonhernandez2417 If you say so
Made this for our king bed!!! Thank you for the idea and all the hard work you guys put into making this video. Was easy to adjust our measurements. We love our new bed frame!!
What are the measurements for king size bed if you don’t mind me asking
@@anthonycook2047 A regular Queen size bed is 60X80. A regular King is 76X80. Whatever measurement he used for the length, we used. For the width, we used 81.5. Use the same addition of measurement we used for the bed frame for the base. Instead of 2X6 for the base we used 2X8 to make the bed sit higher off the floor.
@@Ainson84 thank you. I’m building this for my Cali king this week
Great Video and shout out to you and your dad for the awesome relationship. Just built this for my daughter following your excellent instructions and we couldn’t be happier
my dad would've just bitched at me that I was doing it wrong the whole time.
Lol mine too!!
x3
@@righteous1229 mine will just sit there watch me and silently judge me then if I mess up will go now why did you do that when you could have done it like this
I mean my dad would do that if I didnt get his help before i screwed it up. If I had him basically do half the work like he did it would have been fine lmao
Mine would have just said Im going home figure it out yourself
