Keith, this bed frame is beautiful. I thoroughly enjoyed watching you design and build it, and of course I love that you used almost all salvaged material. Thanks for sharing this video with us.
Thank you!
One of the things I always appreciate is the inclusion of mistakes. Few projects, especially original projects, happen without them. I'm also a big fan of your repurposing and frugal nature. The bed looks amazing.
Thank you
I hope you don't mind a suggestion. You might need some ventilation holes in the ply, otherwise mould can grow in the trapped condensation. A hole saw applied at regular intervals, would do the job. Beautiful project, and lovely to see reclaimed wood being used.
This turned out great. If the middle support ever did start to split, you could add a metal collar/belt just before the notch.
Really accomplished job and beautiful bed, Keith. I could have done with you finishing with the beauty shot of Dylan on the bed at the end😉👏🏼🌟
Cheers. I wish I got more photos of him, but the room is so dark! 👍
You have an uncanny knack of casually showing a genius idea. Centre rail of your bed, many times I've put a screw in to repair a split step cut in the end of a Timber, have I ever thought to put a screw in before it splits? NOPE!!!! I've 40 years of experience making and repairing stuff and this is not the first time watching your channel I've thought - Why the hell didn't I think of that?
Thanks, like I say I wasn't sure if it would help but it made sense in my head🤷♂️👍
I really enjoy your vids man. One thing I do like about you is you never shy away from your mistakes and explain what went wrong and how you resolved it!
Brilliant Keith.... 55 pounds! and that was for the bit you couldnt see! The rest of it was salvaged :)) Thats my favourite kind of work.. It looks superb!
Thank you David, my favourite kind of work too!
Wow, the bed frame looks awesome. Really nice to use salvage wood and bring new life to it. I'm really impressed. Thanks for all videos you make, I really love them.
Thank you
Using your T-track as a hold-down for sanding your boards, has just changed my life. You're a genius haha
Looks stunning Keith, it must weigh a bloody ton as well. 🌎s strongest bed I reckon.
Cheers mate! It's not as heavy as you'd think actually..!
A triumph!!! Such a beautiful thing you have created. Thank you so much for sharing. Wonderful man.
Thank you
Really like how the bed has turned out.You have made a super king size bed for £55 in material costs,now that is a serious saving to what you would of been paying from a supplier.
Thank you
This right here is why I love your channel. Beyond beautiful work and you reused what others would have thrown away.
Thank you
The slats on the bed head look brilliant mate, love it
What a super job you made of that Keith. The bed with the new mattress looks smashing. You must be delighted with the outcome and how satisfying to have used mostly reclaimed wood. Well done!
Thank you 😁👍
Gorgeous. You know how to bring out the best in wood. 💜💜💜
Bed looks beautiful...good to see ya working with reclaimed wood again. And no sponsor. Glade to see the Keith from the little shed.
Thank you. That was also the Keith working 60+ hours per week though - I'm not going back there, and I would hope that no one would wish that upon me either....
@@RagnBoneBrown just saying that you looked more relaxed.
Lovely job!
Extra bed space is very important as you have the added bonus of extra elbow room when cornering ... ;-)
Keith....That is fabulous, and the fact it is made from your old conservatory is even better. It took me ages to work out how those brackets worked... Nice one, Cheers Paul
Cheers Paul👍
Stunning bed, impressive craftsmanship. Really appreciate how you share all that goes into your creations.
If you've only come here for Dylan skip to: 12:13 & 12:35.
I apologise for being so late in providing a timestamp for the most vital part of this video.
I think your bed looks really good Keith.
Absolutely brilliant, loved it. Wee tip for cutting off bolts, leave the nut on while cutting then when you unscrew it deburrs your cut.
Using that screw at 10:53 was a cool little tip. It make perfect sense but I've never seen it done or done it myself. Interesting.
Cheers 👍
I've been wanting to make a bed for my guest room. I have tile, so I think finding a center post with a rotating wheel may do the trick to moving it around as needed.
Unbelievable work the bed is top tier! Should be proud of that Keith
7:31 That made me wince. I had kickback from a very similar cut to that. Still have a slight scar.
Nice bed. I made my own too - pine - and it weighs a lot. I ended up reinforcing the corners with massive corner braces and coach bolts because the bed hardware loosened as metal plates can give. Solid.
Nice finishing work. You did something really good there.
I wouldn't make that cut without a riving knife, put it that way. Thanks
it's a good solid bed for many years to come enjoyed the video.
Your wife must be so proud! Well done!
Brilliant! Amazing job, looks fab. If Dylan's happy, I'm happy!
Your slabs of beach are class, lucky you are not my next door neighbour 😂😂
They seem to be never ending!!
looks amazing. Really like the idea of not having the central leg
Cheers Matt, I should probably lay off the pies though!
Absolutely beautiful, outstanding craftsmanship,and the fact u managed to do it from reclaimed wood in to such a high quality finish,hats off to u sir!!
Hi Keith, I like the style of this simple bed, but I would recommend giving the mattress the opportunity to breathe, the air needs to circulate under the mattress, that's one of the reasons beds have slatted bases/frames. Otherwise the wooden panels will start to mold relatively quickly. Greetings Ben
As explained in the video, the mattress requires a solid base, not slatted
Love the idea of returning material from the house in a new form. I’ve made mantles, bench seats and vanity tops from old floorboards and wall cladding in our 1870s timber framed house. It feels great to know that the material is having a new life and makes the extra work worth it. Your final product looks amazing.
That is awesome! Thank you
That turned out great! You might want to add a vertical post (leg) to the center of the center rail for just a little more support. Our bed has it and other than hitting it when we vacuum, it really is no bother.
I mentioned in the video that i wanted to avoid adding a central leg, hence the chunky centre beam
Keith, been watching your vids for a while now and you truly are inspirational. This bed is amazing and demonstrates your amazing skill.
Thank you
Hi Keith A great bed, love the design , I've stripped a single Divan bed for a skip and under the cloth cover was a wooden frame then cardboard , once a mattress is on it must spread the weight , keep up the good work, Graeme.
Great looking bed, I like the contrast of the head and base boards 👍
I understand your going for a "Fine Furniture" bed. For me I typically don;t acre about matching my timbers on a project. Its re-used, I'm happy to show that. I'm also increasingly saddened we don't see the Oak hatstands make an appearance anymore .....
They'll be back, still got a few left but I don't think there are any oak ones!
Keith “we particularly enjoy sleeping on it ” Dylan “ we human ？ 🙄 ” 😂😂😂 i say this as my cat has snuggled himself on my bed 😀 great work as always really detailed and strong
This is my favourite of your projects (so far!). Fantastic job Keith👍
My favourite too! Cheers
Great video, great project and nice to see you smiling again, fella. 👍🏻🍺🍻
A really nice project. A great deal of care made such a difference.
Sometimes a longer time frame is so much better on a project. And it doesn’t matter if you break the videos into multiple parts either.
Well done 👍
Thank you
I love the fact that as much as possible of what you make is from salvaged wood but the quality of what you now make with it is exceptional. Thank you for sharing it.
Excellent bed build Keith love the way you said that all 3 of you now have more room ha ha ha, i can tell you by experience that Dillon will still pinch some room off you from somewhere.
Stay Safe,
Barry (Wirral)
Ha ha yes!! Thank you
Super cool!! I might steal some of your ideas for the bed I need to make this year…awesome!!!
Cheers Henry
Mate, the bed looks brilliant. Thanks for another great video. All the best.
Superb job Keith the bed looks extremely impressive. Great use of your salvaged timber. Tony
Thanks Tony 👍
Really nice build! Looks absolutely stunning!
One small thing that's not the end of the world but you do need to keep an eye on.
As far as I understand the bottom of the bed/matrass is now closed off?
It's actually better to keep holes in there for ventilation of the bottom side of the matrass.
Otherwise you run the risk getting a slightly damp bottom of the matrass as well as some mold eventually.
Turning the matrass enough can prevent this, but personally I would just make some holes in the bottom.
As explained in the video, this mattress requires a solid base, not slatted
Fantastic job, Keith! I can see Dylan (or is it "Dillon"?) thinking, "Cool! Dad's made a human-sized version of a cat-bed!"
Haha I think he probably is!
Thank you
😁 Lovely job Keith. You can't beat a nice bit of salvaged wood. You should be proud of that one. Good job with the colour matching (something I never get right 😒). Glad to see it gets Dylan approval 😁👍
Cheers Frank
Excellent job, I really like the pale/dark co trast, and the herringbone slats. I had a mattress on a board but had to drill 50mm holes to inhibit mould from the moisture that had nowhere to go. Thanks for posting.
Thank you
Excellent work repurposing all that wood etc. Great result too. 👍
Stunning piece of work Keith, loved watching this over the two parts 😀😀👍👍
Cheers Leo, means a lot. It's my favourite ever project I think 👍
Wow! That looks terrific. I'm impressed with how you get such good results from salvaged materials. Nicely done!
Thank you
This looks beautiful, Keith! Nice upgrade!
This is mega Keith. Brilliant bit of work and looks great. Bravo.
Great use of the reclaimed wood and a lovely job.
I admire your colour matching skills. I have never used different woods and tried to get them to match, simply because I just never had any luck on test pieces. You seem to get it right so often.
Thanks
Great looking bed Kieth. The quality of the finish is amazing. I'm a great believer of using reclaimed wood as and when I can, especially as you said about the cost of wood right now. Great work 👍
Thank you
Great job Keith, looks amazing. Nice to see I wasn't the only one who had to move the brackets on the legs when I made a bed last year!
Haha glad I'm not the only one. Thank you!
Well done! It looks beautiful. Loved the 2 videos on this project and seeing the end result. Beautiful work.
Clearly, Dylan gives it his seal of approval--absolutely gorgeous bed! Great work.
Get well soon Mr Keith 😀
Wow. Looks awesome, I find this very inspiring, and if this is a taste of future project videos all I can say is I am really looking forward to future projects!
Thank you!
The bed looks fantastic. Congratulations!
I may be wrong but I think you should add some holes in that plywood for ventilation as mold could start developing at the bottom of the mattress due blocked to air flow.
Also, it is good practice to flip the mattress periodically (if it's designed that way).
Cheers! This mattress needs a solid base
Thank you for telling us how long the overall project took. I like hearing that because as a new woodworker I have been wondering if I am just really slow..... sounds like I am about on par.
Every job takes three times longer than expected!! 👍
Looks great bud, as a newly wed bloke you should fit some grab rails strategically as well 😄
A beautiful bed. Well done.
Beautiful bed, loved watching this over two videos, has given me ideas for my own bed build on my to do list,
That's a beautiful cat bed that you can also use, makes me also want a queen size!
It turned beautiful I love it 🥰 I loved seeing a big project it was worth the wait 🤎🤎
Thank you!
love the design! You are a very skilled woodworker.
damn, the cladding and everything looks sooo nice!!
That turned out superb Keith. Top job. A bed like that would cost hundreds.
The bed base is a masterpiece Keith. The finish is perfect and the stain used on it really makes the timber stand out. Thoroughly enjoyed each video mate 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you!
Terrific work and a beautiful satisfying result. Great work Keith!
Beautiful! Love the final colours.
Another beautiful piece of furniture!
The bed looks great.
I wish you would upload more videos more often.
Great looking bed. Love the design. Wonderful craftsman ship, as always. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you
This has to be one of your best projects to date. Totally fantastic build and finish. Love the cost cutting as well. Never a bad thing. Great video, keep up the good work.
Thanks Jonathan!
Beautiful work, Keith. Thanks for sharing the video. Now I'm sure you'll find a good purpose for the (salvaged) materials of the old bed.
Thank you!
Keith, nicely done 👍
Personally, I am not a big fan of darker woods such as mahogany, but the contrast of the dark woods with the light beech is gorgeous 😍!!
Good of you to admit being human (mistakes), I tend to think it is just me that makes them.
Thanks
Great work, awesome to watch. I think you are one of the most gifted narrators of projects, and although I know no one wants to make mistakes, I love how you talk through them with solutions to make it work. It’s amazing, keep up the great work, and enjoy some well deserved rest on your new bed!
Keith, a beautiful project which you must be very proud of. I am pleased to see that Dillon was helping you during the build 😁.
Great build and nice video. I’ve always wanted to try to make a bed frame. Yours turned out really nice!
Beautiful bed! Great job and a wonderful way to reuse some reclaimed wood!! 😎🤘
Thanks
Definitely one of your best projects
Cheers
Brilliant. Love the design, thoughtfulness and perfect color matching. Now get some rest and kick that cold.
Keith there not mistake there your learning experience.👍👍🍺🍺Great job.
One of your best projects so far. The bed is beautiful! Thanks for sharing this with us!
Great job Keith. Thanks for posting.
Great looking bed, Keith - love the reclaimed element. Just an FYI on the center support, I ran a furniture/mattress store for many years and the number one reason for mattress warranty claims was sagging in the middle. Your center rail looks strong but you might want to check and see if the mattress warranty has a clause about requiring a center support leg. Keep up the great work!
Fab project. Beautiful and so well made.
Wow, that is gorgeous, excellent job! I read your blog about burnout and I think the fun you had taking your time with this project really shows. I also really love reusing the ancient tools, bits and scraps that came with my house when I bought it.
Thanks!
Fantastic build Keith, loved the colours too...
Thank you
looks like you are struggling a bit with the heat in the workshop maybe worth having a look at a 600w infrared heater mounted on the ceiling for this time of year
