    This video is Part 2 of a 3-part video series on the complete step-by-step instructions for building a platform bed. I built this bed 3+ years ago for my son's room and it has worked out great! All four of us have slept on it multiple times, we use it as a guest bed when people stay over and have never had a problem. It was time to make a bed for my daughter's room so I thought I would film the process this time around.
    In this video we will begin assembling the base of the platform bed, measuring for square, adjusting and preserving square and marking our sides for the slats.
    Click the annotation for Part 1 that is found at the beginning of this video. The link to Part 3 will be at the end of this video for you to access as well.
