At the slats that pull out. Maybe consider adding a stop so it won’t pull out all the way. Doesn’t have to be at all but maybe in the middle and the two ends.

This was an incredible build, but MAN, seeing your solutions to things like how to clamp something so big was amazing

I enjoy watching your vids because you explain it in a way that non-woodworkers/carpenters can understand. Your projects instill confidence that anyone can build the pieces in the vids. Keep it up!

This is exactly what I had in mind for my son’s bedroom! He currently has a queen size bed on a big bulky bed frame, but he needs more room. This will be perfect. Thank you for your very thorough tutorials!

This is an excellent transitional bed from youth to teen. Several years ago, I built a 5 feet high platform bed for a granddaughter with a play area underneath. Two more granddaughters later, we are in need of space as the oldest is growing out of the playroom stage. This bed conversion would fit well underneath the existing platform and accommodate the two younger tykes handily in one room. Fast forward 9 years, and the youngest will inherit the bunk with an underneath couch as the oldest moves on to college... You come up with some very convenient ideas for confined spaces Glen. Thanks.. and keep the videos coming!

This build is incredible man! It looks so good too

Just did the final assembly today. Overall a nice product. My main motivation to use the design was I don’t have much time right now so is an easy quick solution. I do have it setting on felt feet, which helps the front in sliding, as well as an arm on both sides. We are using a futon. In the short term I am using additional pillows when in the upright position as a 90 degree back is a little uncomfortable. Since I have carpentry and metal working experience, am going to modify the back so it is angled and that angle is adequately supported. I think it will compliment your original design. Well done!

This guy is amazing. Love how he gives us the different options as well as obstacles/challenges that one may run into with these projects

Super cute build👍😜😁

Smart,really smart...keep posting those great ideas.

I LOVEE the architecture of this bed. Such a modern feel 🙏🏾🙏🏾

Love the way he works, stating the stress & happiness of the project & the material

Nice job I was looking for something like this for my cabin. Your instructions were easy. Might I suggest you put a 1x4 on the underside of your pull out slats that way it won't pull out when you fully extend it. Other then that great job.

AWESOME build!!!! You did a fantastic job both showing what you were doing and explaining it as you went along, and the finished product looks BEAUTIFUL.

Love this idea for a vintage camper I'm currently working on. I'll repurpose 2 fairly new twin xl foam mattresses, cut 1 in half lengthwise, and use it for the back cushion. Depending on the size I cut, I can go either full xl or queen. With slight modification, I believe I can also add a twin bed lift to it and have much needed storage under. Many thanks for your design and clear instruction!

Very nicely done, something even I can make for my family room, great job, thanks for posting.

I'm so glad this came across my feed! You did an awesome job with your presentation and your build... Kudos to you!💕💕

My son is 6'5'. the closed in ends would be an issue. This would be great for a custom size bed, just have foam cut to the right size, make covers and sheets for them. Too bad dimensions weren't given, but people can look up standard size beds for twin, full, queen etc. Not CA King because they are longer. Then make a coffee table with storage for bedding and pillows.

Great video. I love how you keep it real and explain things in a simple way.

Ficou ótimo seu projeto de sofá!! Vou me inspirar a fazer o meu assim também. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I love this design. It would go perfect in the new house

foam products inc. ,in montgomery ,al you can get custom cut foam for beds- sofas -and any thing with foam cushions for this project you could get a spit mattress that coverts into sofa cushions --I Have work for the co.about 39 years .your build is great for the front board maybe some small chair slides for the carpet would work .

I have a small home and no place for a guest to sleep. This is perfect. Compared to what I would pay for a (quality) store bought futon, I can use the extra money for more projects. This video was easy to understand and I appreciated the tips (do’s and don’ts) Do you have any suggestions for turning a (cheap) 3 season porch into an extra (insulated) bedroom?

You can make that patio into a beautiful room by using 1/4 inch plywood sheets to enclose the whole walls. Then frame a window and bam. ☺ If you cant afford to do it all at 1 time enclose the bottom half all the way around the room and add the rest as you can afford it. Thats what im fixing to do. You can add a beautiful storage area off tje back of your house the same way too!

You make it seem so easy and effortless! Great job! We may be able to actually build this with your step by step instructions.

This crazy method you kept going through for fixing the bars was actually not the least crazy at all!!! It made me realize how to smartly get that done without a whole lot of measuring and probably false marks and slant bars that would get stuck pulling out the bed! Thumbs up!

this is sooo cool! youtube recommendation finally getting it right 👍🏻

Ya really did great in explaining all the steps. Kudos!.🤩

Man, you are amazing. Great design, perfect realization. Hats off to you.... Thanks for sharing

Great design! I've never liked pull out beds until I saw this. Awesome job - thanks for sharing it.

I feel like you could probably buy two twin size foam matrasses and use one for the sofa cousin and cut the other one up for back and arm rest. Might have to take that into account when building thou. Great project, I like how you show that it is doable even without tons of fancy tools

This is the perfect solution, and will look great as I have some walls with pine carsiding and pine shelves. The built-in bookshelf solves my issue of wanting a side table but not being able to find a design I liked to buy or build. I know how to sew, so the cushion issue is solved.

Right now she's want to ditch her traditional type queen size for more bedroom space. Thanks so much for sharing your talents and skills!

You did a great job on this. The carpet makes it a little difficult, but I wonder if the slide was built out in more of a box with casters on the bottom, if it wouldn't roll a little better. It would also mean you could talk out the middle support in the sofa section and add a 2x4 to the back end of the pullout, so it wouldn't pull all the way off. We're going to work from this design and make one for our cabin. Thanks for posting!

Very nice work, dude! Beautiful piece of furniture! 😀

I love this idea! I need to build something like this but just to go around my twin frame, mattress, and boxsprings. I don't want the mattress to just sit on top of the frame.

The problem with that is the sliding section has to pass the center seat support beam. You could put ears on the sliding section slats that sit in the spaces between slats, creating a T shape, and put stops on the top side of the front support beam. Only improvement I would add to the design.

@Wilson84KS

5 жыл бұрын

yeah, just three pieces of wood on three slides and make small cutouts in the middle support beam and put a screw on each side of the cutout, no strenght is lost but it can slide out way further without being afraid it moves away at night, the stops doesn't need to be high, two, three centimeters are enough, the weight from the top keeps them where they are. But man that thing looks so nice, I think google read our minds, I'm planing all the time to make my own couch, but I can't remember searching for tutorials and now I get this one recomended xD And it is even better, this way I could have living and sleeping room in one and use the second one as working room and closet.

Nice work man. I think you are like me, Like to work alone. Take out the 2x4 in the middle so you can put a stop so the sliding side don't fall off. The other side is the same size and doesn't have a support in the middle.

You could also add a drawer under the part that pulls out to store linens. Also foam from joannes is a great option for the seat. Cut to fit and cover with safety pins attaching fabric to the bottom (out of site), or if you're handy, sew a cover (ain't nobody got time for that). Very cool build sir!!!
