Decided to make this bed as a father-son project. We modified the original plan a bit but used most of the ideas from the site. We decided to make it taller since we had the ceiling height available and wanted real usable space under the bed. I built this one with 58" clearance under the bed. We also made the windows hinge outward to prevent head bangs when playing in the bed. We also added a bit more support on the front and the back panels.
Estimated Cost
$500

Week Long Project (20 Hours or More)
