// ABOUT THIS VIDEO
Johnny, from Crafted Workshop, and I collaborated to build this DIY Modern Plywood Platform bed with built-in nightstands and back lit headboard. It's a big build but it's actually pretty easy. Lots of repitition, but you could get it done with a fairly minimal tool set.

MUY buena calidad, el texto imagenes. kzbin.infoUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO Un manuel muy completo y trabajado. Resulta muy práctico. Para principiantes y profesionales. Lo recomiendo

[@glennpambid6245]

This man is both woodsmith and wordsmith 😂

[@ririsou2887]

Thank the lord for you! Someone who actually shares their measurements with the world. I couldn’t find one video where someone DIY’ed a platform bed AND shared the measurements. Free or not, at least it’s shared. Thank you. 💜

[@nathishkaran4863]

This deserves a revisit with the current format of videos.

[@gijoyjoy]

Beautiful build! I love how you embraced the plywood layering into your design.

[@nolawiworku7488]

going back five years and watchin this. damn how far you have come.

[@cynthiaclark9723]

Oh and I'm a God this is for you for doing a beautiful job for making a note💙💙💙.

[@kennylunsford5759]

What got me into your channel is your soft voiced narration, and music. It's very relaxing. Keep it up. That's what sets you apart from everyone.

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Thanks Kenny :)

[@JayrYan345]

Perfect finished look and easy to follow thanks for the upload

[@masterofnone]

Hey guys awesome to see you guys work together on this project.

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

We had a ton of fun :)

[@craftedworkshop]

Thanks man!

[@norbertcardenas1876]

I dig the concept. I wish it would have been done with red or white oak to make it pop. Overall the design and concept was great. The headboard made the whole project and really took it to the next level. Great job.

[@scottmclean6301]

that is goingto be the most solid built bed ever. Earthquake proof

[@valtor99]

It's really cool to see you two work together on this one. And that you use just plywood not some fancy hardwood.

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Thanks Valpor...it was a good time...and we knew we were going to have to work fast while he was out here - so we wanted to make sure it was something big, but that could be done relatively quickly.

[@craftedworkshop]

It was a super fun build, and I love using plywood in this way. It’s an incredibly versatile material.

[@FOMI1970]

good company + good craftsmanship = great build.

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Yes indeed :)

[@adgarza28]

You have a voice that can be used to narrate children's adventure stories. Bedtime stories. Aside from that, this was an awesome build and great idea. End result was fantastic. I like the option of staining/painting the wood. Again, good video!

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Thanks Adrian :)

[@DmdMixZ]

So simple but it looks absolutely amazing! Gonna build that as well next month

[@mauromiranda9299]

Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful your job.. congratulations!

[@ScrapZero]

My first time watching one of your videos. I accidentally stumbled on this while searching for nightstand ideas. Your whole set up is very calming, artistic, and enjoyable! Like a KZbin artisan of building(if that makes sense) your narration is so soothing! I appreciate the content man! Keep it up

[@makeorbreakshop]

Love the build! And the Kid A, Kid B callouts were awesome!

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Thanks man...appreciate it!

[@TrotterG]

Haha definitely had to go back and listen to the last minute again with the new perspective in mind.

[@HomeNectar]

3 videos in now, you have the best sense of humor! I've subscribed, and put my work to the side that I was trying to get done this evening.. haha

[@maxrocha6581]

Excelente esse projeto ! Parabéns !!!

[@MrAidanfleming]

That looks great!! Lovely

[@chandlerellis5457]

I started by watching your diy modern tv stand (the one with colored doors), and have now watched at least 10 of your videos. I really like the way each video is presented and I love the format! Keep making cool videos!

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Thanks Chandler...hope you continue to enjoy :)

[@brunocouto7398]

GOSTEI DO PROJETO E A APRESENTAÇÃO DO SEU TRABALHO, ME GANHOU COMO INSCRITO, TA DE PARABÉNS NOTA 10

[@tkdgiant]

This project.....blew my mind....... I just dont understand why anyone would hit the dislike button....

[@JLawL]

Gonna skip the base and slats and just build the surrounding part and headboard but starting this tomorrow! Needed a bed low enough for our dachshunds and not paying 1500+ for a platform bed! Awesome build!

[@maristboy25]

Really enjoyed watching this clip, makes me want to get out into the workshop.

[@michaelmironenko455]

Cool project! I like the form of the bed, and I like plywood patterns in general, but here I'd like to cover the sides with a layer of plywood, it will give a more clean look. Anyway your idea is awesome and I think this bed will stay for a hundred years without any problems.

[@zizouyoussef7944]

i love you my brother ...bueautiful content

[@scooppralines6428]

Super funny at the end brother. Thanks again for sharing.

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Thanks Scoop ;)

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Thanks Kevin...appreciate it!

[@christianbuzio9468]

good job, good music, good music, good mood, good friend, good bed.....I finished my "good" but I know u have a bunch more waiting to be shown us....thanks...for good example ;)

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Thanks Christian...GOOD day :)

[@Thom4123]

Awesome collaboration video the bed came out great. I think at least for me working with another woodworker you enjoy the company and tend not to be as focused and dialed in. Awesome job always enjoy your videos

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

It's all true Thom :) Thanks!

[@eliglbe]

Beautiful

[@cynthiaclark9723]

You are good at building when you made that video blank that making up that no tendo switch you did a beautiful job at it

[@ShaneBates0]

This build deserved a "Johnny B crouch." Excellent work!

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

haha...we did the double Power Squat on his headboard vid :)

[@craftedworkshop]

Yup, gotta go check out Part 2, Shane!

[@ShaneBates0]

Just watched part 2 and I must say that Chris is a natural. Most excellent video guys!

[@intercrossed]

I couldn't help but laugh at that final remark 😂 Beautiful project. It gave me some ideas for a bed project I have got coming up.

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Thanks Magnus :)

How many plywood boards did you use

[@gbjones54]

Chris, Glad you guys got together and I was able to find you via Johnny;s channel. Look forward to seeing many more of your videos. Thank you guys for sharing what you do and the processes that are involved.

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Hey Gary...glad you found me too! Had a great time working with Johnny - hope you enjoy some of my other builds as much :)

[@MarkusJaeger-itguy]

I enjoy your kind of humor so much! Thanks man!

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Thanks Markus :)

[@kianacharese413]

I can’t decide if I watch you videos for the builds or the wit!! I LOVE IT HERE🥰🥰🥰lol

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Hey Stanley...welcome aboard! Hope you dig some of the other videos as well :)

[@FritsvanDoorn]

This is inspirational (if this is an English word, I'm Dutch). Great idea. Maybe someday I will be just as creative. Thank you.

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Hey Frits...it most certainly is :)

[@brendanspafford206]

I was hoping to see the Johnny squat from you! Awesome video as always Chris! You two have easily become my favourites on KZbin!

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Check out the headboard video. We did a double power squat :)

[@craftedworkshop]

Thanks Brendan!

[@FutureOfGaming]

Wow u sound so coool and calm u maked my day

[@brentwatier6654]

I have to say I am quite impressed by your video and the editing. Found it funny when you labeled the kid a and kid b. This video made me smile. Thanks for all the tips and your hard work making this video.

[@cynthiaclark9723]

You're doing a very good job on this project and making this bed💖💙

[@ShaunGuthrie-CaskWoodworking]

So did Johnny sleep on the floor until you made the bed for him ;) Chris, again, always great storytelling. You are a master at what you do. Thanks for sharing!

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

hahah....of course not! I put him up in the Murphy Dog bed I did for Rockler a couple months back :-P

Thanks Arvid...that's really cool :)

Ah, the ShinBuster 3000. My favorite!

[@colinwhitehurst9781]

Loved the ending. I can tell that you enjoy subtle irreverancy as well.

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Yes...so subtle - many won't even realize there's a joke in there :)

[@johnbarrera7998]

@@Foureyes.Furniture 9 times out of 10, I watch your videos in hopes of a subtle joke.. dont get me wrong, your great work and 90s, day time TV show / Bob Ross type style keeps me interested as well. Huge fan, first time writer, long time watcher -John

Hi , Beautiful bed, great job! To go further, I think it would be even more awesome than bed in suspension (without foot), held by the head of the bed, but how? 🤔😜👍🏽

[@CammiesGarage]

Beautiful build and cool collaboration.

[@Foureyes.Furniture]

Thanks Cammie

[@JgHaverty]

Thats a really great design.
