The Bed Frame pt. 3

It's Labor Day weekend and I've definitely lived up to the name. Taking advantage of one of my few remaining free weekends - fall season starts Tuesday - I got the rest of the bed frame sketched out and put together the head board.

The cap and bottom piece for the head board on the left and center of the picture. I wasn't sure what to do about the posts so my step-dad suggested that we build our own so they match the rest of the frame. That's the pile on the right.

Life is so much easier when you've got the right tools.


The nearly finished product. The posts will go on either side of the outer shutters. All that's left is to fill in any flaws, sanding then stain. Next up is the frame.
