DIY Kids Loft Bed that'll SAVE YOU SPACE! // Woodworking project
My daughter came to us one day and said she wanted a new bed...
Makes sense since her bed was originally her brothers, so it was time to shift things around again and pass her current bed to her little sister haha!
So we went ahead and started thinking, eventually we came to the conclusion that since she wanted a bigger bed, and has a relatively small room, best idea would be to go with a loft bed, then we could simply tuck her table under the bed which really makes her room feel a lot bigger.
This project took several months to complete, probably could have finished it much quicker, but it is what it is :)
We absolutely love the end result, both the simplicity and the fact that it actually does what it was meant to do, which is to save that floor space!
Let me know what you guys think in the comments, or if you have any questions, and I'd love it if you would subscribe to my CZcams channel, so you won't miss any of my future projects ;)

DIY Modern Metal Planter from Trash

Hey Guys, today we're taking some trash and try to make something nice out of it :) This story again involves my wife (how else...), as part of her pastry business she inflates helium balloon for her customers.

DIY Deep Lumber Rack // Great for storing cardboards to
zhlédnutí 103Před 3 lety
My wife needed a better place to store her cake cardboards and macaroon boxes, they were stored in the garage which was mostly unreachable and hard to keep clean. So we decided building this deep shelf out of two racks that would nicely fit the depth of her biggest cardboard (75 cm / 30" deep). Each rack is made of 3 layers of Birch plywood, the layers are glued together and trimmed flush with ...

    Why u are not using open cut list...?

    • @diywithguy
      @diywithguy Před 2 lety

      Good question... My projects have been relatively simple so far, and with this method I have full control on creating the cut list. It's also quite easy to understand, if you got to this point where you have a model, you can easily follow the steps to create a cut list. Another reason which is I don't like installing extensions unless I absolutely have to. But you might have other considerations :) Have you tried open cut list? What are your thoughts on it?

    How tall is the rod from the floor and what age would you recommend this for

    • @diywithguy
      @diywithguy Před 3 lety

      It's roughly 93cm from the floor (36 inches), regarding the age I would say once your child wants to choose his/her own cloths. My daughter was 18 months old when I built it. But even before that you can use it as a closet or a place to store toys etc.

    • @tjm3900
      @tjm3900 Před 3 lety

      A real tool is one that pays for itself and saves you money. Until it does that it is a toy. I have a Bosch jigsaw that cost quite a lot of money when I bought it 20 years ago, but back then that's what I had to spend to get a tool that performed well with blade oscillation etc. Now for a fraction of the price I paid back then It is possible to by something like the saw in this video that probably performs just as well. Will it last as long ? Who knows but the chances are that it will have paid for itself before it gets stolen off the job site, falls off a roof or just fails outside the warranty. Then, who knows, it's replacment may well offer BETTER performance (thinking brushless) of have other features. I have a Marita reciprocating saw, had it a long time, it is built to last but it's an underpowered boat anchor compared to some late module cheapies.
