Yo at 6:29, anyone else see that one drop of glue fly out and land at the end of the plank. Theres literally no point to this just curious if theres anyone else out there that have the sixth sense
What a fanctastic design, I'm a big fan of plywood and this is a great example of why. As you said you could modify this in a number of ways, I think a live edge headboard would be awesome too. If you wanted to create an different finish you could veneer whatever you wanted on top of that ply and trim it so you don't see the ply layers.
Ben, thank you for showing us this bed. I built the bed for my son. It is a twin-XL size. Once I am ready, I’ll build a king-size for myself. Wonderful approach!
As an amateur with woodworker, i typically feel overpowered with the entire arrangement kzread.infoUgkxrYREG3-7f1Aqk9ams3ZESRNzGnfdUtyQ . Be that as it may, this arrangements drove me through with much clarity and effortlessness woodplans. Works i now work like a genius. That is great!
Love, LOve, LOVE! The side table ledges are magical. That bedroom setup is so you.
My word that's a beautiful room you showed at the end. The style of the furniture is really sleek and modern, and the floor and walls compliment it perfectly. I really like the aesthetic overall.

@brdn mr I don't know that to tell you man, people have different tastes. I've always been incredibly minimalist in terms of decorations and furnishings in my bedroom. Even at university people always asked me why I didn't have things hanging all over the walls, I just don't like how it looks. Simple, clean, and sleek, the only thing I would add to the room is a bookshelf or two.

Holy moly. This is merchandising done right. Well done, sir. I don’t need a bed, but all of a sudden, I do....
I’m aware I’m two years late however- This bed looks AMAZING! I too love building and making things from plywood.
Ah, the shin splitter style of bed. Notice the smooth modern lines, clean aesthetics, and the ability to split your shins in half. Seriously though it looks nice.

Completely amazing! How I wish I could do something like this! But I have zero experience with tools. A bed like this will last generations!
That angled headboard is what I have been looking for since forever...it's perfect when reading or watching TV without having extra pillows..
Man, that is beautiful!!! Dreaming about dreaming on that bed.
This opens up lots of modification possibilities to fit different room arrangements and space layout needs, well done!!
I really love the look of this minimalist furniture.
Beautiful. Love the simplicity. Looks elegant
Love the frame concept. Id like a taller version of the bed just so I could add some more storage underneath though... maybe even a set of hinges at the head board to flip the matress up and check out my storage setup below.

I live in a small space and need underbed storage, too. I just checked the dimensions on both this bed and the underbed storage at IKEA, and most--if not all--will fit with the lowest bracket model. I'm pretty pumped. I'll just make it without the attached side tables.
It might not fit the modern design aesthetic but I would cover those plywood edges with pool noodles to protect my shins

Add a router in to this mix of tools to put roundovers on all the edges for a more smooth, safer and modern look/finish. I’m going to build this for my new house and some of the other plywood furniture, I think it looks really cool and can look super expensive if done right by routing the edges and filling all the screw holes. Would look even better if the headboard and base was one piece of bent plywood.
Very neat - especially the tables and angled headboard.
"in a single weekend" LOL
The fast food of woodworking.
Beautifully narrated. Beautifully performed 😊.
Great project! My only worry is that with the slats flush with the sides, when leaning on the headboard the mattress will likely slide towards the end of the bed. I would add frame around the mattress, or drop the slats 2-3 inches below the sides of bed to eliminate this problem

Maybe you could use perforated drawer liner under the mattress. I think you can get it in rolls. And it wouldn’t have to be permanent, since it will grip on the wood and the mattress. Put some at the top and bottom of the bed.

Very cool! I was in the market myself for a real solid wood bed frame, when I saw they were starting at $600 for anything of decent quality I decided to make my own. It was fun and cost 1/4 using good quality lumber. I honestly like your design better tho 😂
Great design, thanks! (I think I'm going to go for a hinged version for our tri-fold mattress.)
Truly looks modern ! J'adore !
Those legs are $200. Not including lumber/supplies/tools. I typically just find a used wood boxspring, strip it down to the bare wood frame, sanitize, and screw a half inch plywood sheet on top. Nearly free. Can be raised on a normal metal bed frame, or prop on cinderblocks for a few bucks (just run 2x4s along the sides for added support).

Yeah, of course anyone can do that for free but it looks normal, tasteless and lacks any personality or design intent. This project was not created to be the cheapest bed frame out there, it's designed to be an authentically minimal bed frame to reflect a personal approach to room-decorating.

I was having the same doubt! I feel like a stopper by the foot of the mattress would be a good and quick solution, or actually positioning the under-matress slates under the frame (screwed on and secured, which would also mean way more work) to create a depression for the matress to sit in and not move around

Amazing! Absolutely love this... thank you so much for sharing
Here on time today
For others who have tried it, does the mattress slide toward the foot when you are at a full reclined/sitting position? Is an additional piece of wood towards the foot of the bed necessary to keep the mattress in place?
@McJaews

A really easy fix is to stick some velcro to the frame to line up with the mattress. You don't have to have velcro on the mattress as well. The rough side should provide a lot of friction against most fabrics.
