    Beautiful design and craftsmanship. Always learning new tips and techniques, also good to see you cut your mortise and fit the tenons, I always hear no you cut the tenon first so seeing a pro/ classic educated craftsman doing it makes me feel really good : ) Because I’m the type that what ever works best for you that’s fine. Take Care and can’t wait to see the new addition.

    Another great build from a local master. Always interesting to see your approach to traditional furniture crafting. I am constantly in awe. We are doing a 4 post bed and I certainly rely heavily on more modern tools (aka CNC technology, festool, etc). I also do not have your hand working skills with chisels and planes! Always make me ponder if modern technology is considering cheating or perceived as a lower standard of craftsmanship. Anyway, another nice job Andy!

    Andy, when I was a kid I spent all my summers on my Aunt and Uncles farm in N. Central Arkansas. In the old log cabin, which was built shortly after the Civil War, there was my great great grandparents bed which was made out of Hickory, but it had no nails or screws. It was held together with wooden wedges and pegs. Have you ever made anything like that?

    Hey amazing bed, congrats on the kid! Also FYI I been sleeping on memory foam for years. You really need to lay a solid plywood platform down. If not the bed confirms to those slates and can actually hurt you in the end. Hope that helps man :) amazing build super inspired the way you bolted the legs on with the tenons is great idea. I may do that on my bed build.

    Hey Andy, pro tip for ya! Laying something flat underneath your mattress on top of the slats is a MUST! By leaving the slats exposed you’re causing your mattress to lay on an uneven support system. This causes the gapped parts to lack the structural integrity they require to give you the good nights sleep you both deserve. Since there isn’t a base, sidewalks, coil core, or any other structural component, the foam just sinks right into those weak spots. If you lay something solid and flat underneath your Casper mattress I’m sure you’ll notice a difference right away!

    Casper has no hassle on the return. But how do you send it back? In my experience, once it's expanded, there is no sending it anywhere. Does casper somehow let you bring a fully expanded king size mattress to UPS (how would i get it there in the first place?) and ship it back to Casper? Need details here.

    Berghaus true. A few holes through the ply would be beneficial for air circulation. The plywood on top of the slats would just be able to take the place of a box spring/foundation. With proper spacing in the slats, the mattress would take on a plusher feel without the plywood.

I don’t want to change my style of video and include voice overs, I think it would hurt my channel so that’s why I decided to do the voice overs as extra content. As of now it’s experimental and I may stop in the future. I do still include the closed captions with some added info.
