After watching 30+ DIY videos for my platform, this is the structural design I´m going for! I enjoy your humor and editing skills too!

You could have easily adited out the part where you ran into problems with the threaded inserts, yet you decided to show the internet a bit of real carpentry and problem solving on the go. So cheers for that!

It’s worth mentioning you can throw some sheet goods down on the slats in lieu of the 1x2s if you feel your bed needs more support. This was the original plan but I felt support was adequate, looks nicer, less expensive and all in one piece 🙌

Just wanted to say that I really enjoy the humor and fun edits you put in your videos. It makes them stand apart from a lot of the other "straight to the point" build videos out there.

Love that for once it's someone who doesn't do everything perfect on the first try but has to fix here and there but still makes it look great in the end. As someone who recently made a screwless shelf that needed quite a lot of fixes it's nice to see videos where not everything works kn the first try.

I’ve watched numerous videos on DIY floating beds. Yours is THE BEST!
The way you explain during video is great!

[juanr.moreno]

Dani you made it. Thanks for the vid. It was amazing. Great work on the floating bed. It looks amazing. Thanks for making us smile again. Now I understand why it takes you awhile to post videos. Keep them coming and we will watch them. Blessings and wish you the best.

Man you're doing great!! I'm on the same boat, working on a full time job, while trying to get a bunch of projects around my house done, trying to edit videos, learning how to do stuff, just a lot...I'm actually stuck on one of my projects causing me a huge delay on publishing my next video. Glad to hear I'm not the only one who runs with some problems in the middle of a project but encouraging not to give up. Thanks for the motivation and congrats on your new modern bed frame and your awesome video quality, I know how hard it is but it was worth all the work!

I like the fact u keep ur mistakes in the final cut. Reminds us all, that none of us are perfect, sometimes things just dont go as planned and its not because we're any less. Keep at it bud, ur content is amazing!

[Motoring]

That floating frame looks great! You did a great job with this video, it was informative and entertaining. Well done

[lisalaughter]

Hilarious, humble and good !!! The idea of using the 2 x 2's instead of the usual 1x4 bed slats were an eyeopener for me ! Why do we use those weak boards for slats anyways....I wonder and God bless all, Lisa

[redaizo]

hahah humour is impeccable got roasted with the ironone :p thanks for the useful tips !

[technocatdance]

I am half way through the video and that $150 ikea bed is looking like a good deal right about now lol I do wish I could build things like beds etc looks like a super fun project

[jamespossible]

When ever I choose to use a screw as you did with your head board I'm inclined to use "t-nuts." When appropriate "dowel nuts" are another alternative. Both nut styles require some alignment. Great video.

Would love to know how you went about setting up a workshop and what sort of tools and pricing of it all sometime, been looking at getting one myself but its a daunting task

[iangalley]

This is your best video yet. Incredible craftsmanship and awesome editing. Keep it up!

[lpgibbo]

🤣🤣🤣 "checked my mask for spiders!" 12:55
As a 22 year spray painter of everything from bicycles to fighter jets I feel that one! 🤣🤣🤣

[nottad]

Nice job! The thing is I think space the under the bed could be used for a lot of storage. I don't know about everyone else but I can't get enough storage. Having the same bed but with some storage underneath for blankets, sheets, any other stuff like that would be ideal. Flipping up the bed instead of drawers would be perfect. Looks great though.

Just found your channel and love the energy, just remember to never burn yourself out. There are to many creators or get burnt out trying to get huge numbers. Just keep having fun and make what you enjoy.

I was shocked to see such low sub count. This is great content, keep it up.
