Essential platform bed - Queen

Submitted by kimsteps on Tue, 08/10/2021 - 17:52

I can't thank you enough for these easy to follow plans. I'm not an experienced builder at all, but was able to build this queen size platform bed. I used Douglas Fir for all visible parts, and finished with minwax semi-transparent stain in walnut. I followed this with three coats of poly-acrylic. No one can believe I was able to build this myself, and frankly I can't either. What a confidence boost!
