New bed.


Recommended Posts

This is the door to an old house I tore down.  I framed it in with wood from the house also.  PU6ZoKF.jpg

This night stand is from the same wood. And drawers are from the kitchen.  My wife is really into the old farm house stuff. I’m more into sleek and modern but I’m kinda ugly so I just build what I’m told.

This is one I built for my wife’s friend that saw hers and had to have one.  OMk1DvV.jpg

I made wall flags with the wood also.  This is my North Carolina flag. 0tcsROL.jpg

@NoBodyImportant thanks for sharing that pal, I really like that and that's what the missus is after too.

What timber did you use for the base?

 

Then base is a store bought adjustable base.  The head board is screwed to the wall and isn’t attached to the base.  She likes to raise the head up to read at night.

Ahh ok, it's the base that's had it on mine. We both end up in the middle by the morning 😂

Loads of adverts on social media. 

Some are very impressive 

Yeah she had a message from a bespoke kitchen fitter last night who said he could do it, but 'bespoke' translates as 'expensive'. 

I'm pretty confident if I took my time and got her indoors to do all the heavy lifting+ sanding I could do it lol just need to find some suitable plans so I can weight it up.

@team tractor is your man. He makes some very tidy stuff. Ocassionally some things may have the odd red stain but that just adds character 😉

Spoils his ability to count too!

I don't know i don't know if I'd forgive myself if he lost a part of he's anatomy because of me 😂.

I did think of asking him but I think distance would be an issue.
