DIY Modern Platform Bed | Modern Builds EP. 47

Today I’m building a king size Mid-Century/Japanese inspired modern platform bed. If you plan to build this for a different size mattress, simply subtract or add the difference in mattress size on the bed. This was a really fun build and a design I wanted to build for a while, so I was really excited to build this one!

  1. DIY with crazy expensive gear,and experience in woodwork and building…

    Really not something for the ordinary DIY builder who wants a nice bed..

  2. Nice bed but I have a few questions: Why did you opt for such large wood, especially 2 by 4 slats instead of 1 by somethings? After everything is screwed in and you flip the bed at 3:56, aren't those 2×4 dependent on the strength of the screws anyway? Given the weight of all of that wood and the manner of assembly this frame it looks quite difficult to maintain. I imagine disassembly/reassembly would be difficult when moving. For the price and effort, I wonder if something from Ikea would be a better idea. Nonetheless, do you have any updated plans that allow for a a more manageable disassembly?
