Trying to figure out plans for this bed frame

3 hours ago by nocturne to c/woodworking

It is time i finally get a bed frame, my wife and i both like this one. It looks like something i can build myself.

I would love to try building this with as few nails/screws as possible. It is for a King Sized bed.

That's the two killer 3000 model. It's pocket screws holding together a box. The plywood across the back of each box gives it stiffness.

I would strongly suggest throwing some 2x4's under it, and a few inches back. Just to get that bottom edge above toe height. Anything you're likely to walk right up to should have toe clearance. Especially if you might do that in the dark, like a bed.

I think it was a joke that got typo'd. "Toe-Killer 3000"

Oh. Heh. Bummer, I've actually been hunting for a really similar bed frame for ages.

Three identical cabinets, the length of which added to the depth is equal to the length of the mattress.

If you don't want to carve out a rabbet, make the back of each 3/4" short, so you have a space to drop the stretcher boards.

If you don't want to use screws, dovetail the carcasses and dado the dividers.
