How to Make a Bed Frame with plans available

Learn how to make a Bed Frame with DIY Pete's video tutorial and bed frame plans. In this video I build a Queen size bed frame. You can easily modify the bed frame for any sized bed. I used Minwax Semi Gloss Polyurethane to finish and seal the wood.

Very nice job. The only thing I would have done differently is ad quite a few more support slats for the matress. Beds are not just for sleeping on if you know what I mean.

Hi Pete I got my plans and in the process of building my first full size bed frame it’s going really well thanks to your instructions . Watched the video about a hundred times. I like your channel I’m a loyal follower. See ya from down south

[ndunguwanjenga]

Really loved how you did it. Simple and straight.

[joekosak]

I love how simple and no nonsense this bed frame build is. great job Pete. I will be adding this to my furniture collection. off too the lumber yard I go.

I'm not building this but I watch all your videos because their really entertaining

[robertemmons]

I think that you just saved me at least a grand by watching your video, my wife was wanting a bed somewhat similar to that style. Now I can build her an entire bedroom set thanks to your design and tips. Now I need to hurry up and get my workshop built.

It's been a long time since I was last in Bozeman, I use to live 10 miles outside of Columbia Falls headed towards Polebridge back in 1986. Kalispell, Whitefish, Hungry Horse Reservoir...just a few of the many places that I use to visit.

You have a thumbs up from me simply for wearing hearing protection and a face mask. Providing a positive, healthy example. Aside from that; great build!

Nice looking bed. Heavy duty, too. I'll be watching the videos several times because I'm not a professional carpenter but have made quite a few things. I like that the designs are not highly complicated. Thanks.

[beatthegov]

I love this. 
I'm going to be building one soon.  Great job Pete

There is absolutely nothing better than a DIY video that is short and too the point. If you want a 45 minute video of something like this, you should not be trusted with a pair of dull scissors let alone power tools.

Another beautiful project! I would love to build one of these sometime. I built a patio bar from your videos and my husband and family loved it.

[marcdominguez]

No complaints at all wow im blown away by how professional you presented your build and the execution. Great job and i cant wait to start mine.

[hayenon]

Great job. Love the bed. I think Im going to build one but out of maple wood. Thank you so much for sharing this video.

I did this project using some old barn wood as the filler for the bed head and footer..it was awesome. Really my first furniture piece and I'm very proud of it.

[alexdejesus]

Thank you pete for sharing this dyi project, i made my bedframe following your plan

I built a similar bed a few years ago. When it came to adding the top board on the head/foot board I counter sunk the screws and used dowels to hide them instead of the putty. Once the finish went on it added a nice decorative touch. Awesome video!

Hey Pete thanks for the plans on your website! I built the bed and it came out amazing! I opted to go with yellow pine from the big box store. After spending days palm sanding the pickets I decided not to use them. I chose to go with 1”x10” pine boards and installed them vertically versus horizontally. It looks great! My 11 year old didn’t really care for the yellow Pine natural look so we decided to white wash it. I also added some trim and a top cap to the headboard and footboard. I don’t know how to upload pictures but I’d really like to know what you think. Once again thank you very much!

I generally can't nail the nails straight into an IKEA flat-pack so I'm hardly the intended audience here but there is something really soothing and entertaining about your videos! Not to mention that the end results are fantastic!

[botchedonce]

I sure like the designs you do. Thanks!

[jeffjohansen]

Hey Pete,
I just got done building this bed frame and I couldn't be happier. Ended up adjusting the dimensions to turn it into a king sized frame and then used a dark cherry stain to finish it. Thanks for all of the great videos! I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with next.
