How to Build a Custom Dog Bed // DIY

I used a 2x6 and some plywood, and made a rustic and distressed wooden dog bed for Lucky.
I used some angle iron and some bolts in the corners, then spray painted them with a hammered black paint.
I distressed the wood with nails and a hammer to give it a weathered look, and gave it a two-tone coloured look with two different wood stains.

Very nice! I might go buy a dog just so I can make this bed.

[@CoreyRametta]

Make the dog bed first, then decide :)

[@TheWarch1ld]

Dont buy a Dog, go to a shelter and you will see the Dog will finds you. You can save a life and find your best friend - in once. Best regards

Best reply ever!

[@teresaevans4840]

@@callmejoe1000 I agree 💯

[@DigitalSwagg]

Turned out beautiful! Looks like Lucky has room for 2! He might get "Lucky!" lol sorry couldn't resist!

[@khalifaaa16]

I wish I was your dog 😅

[@angelinasifuentes6888]

I was like shocked when you said the dogs name because my dog is white and fluffy like yours and his name is lucky as well as yours!😂

[@MelGetmanova]

Love it! I wish I had the tools you have.

[@toversnoleu8769]

the first few seconds of the video reminds me of a western movie where the caretaker sizes up those who's about to duel to start making the casket... -_-

[@aimanbe.5412]

very beautiful build!! keep the good work up man

[@CoreyRametta]

+Aiman Amine Belhadj thanks!

[@Michapewpew]

So, all that I need is a professional woodworking shop.

[@shelleyredman]

Very nice!! I had envisioned something just like this to make for my dog Bella.

[@swright1328]

A great plan but much too complex for me due to the variety of woodwork tools you have.

[@carlotta4th]

Most of this can be done with a normal table saw. Though it does look like the legs would need a jigsaw (handheld ones would work fine and are cheaper).

[@magicalempire]

nice job

[@r.e.r.6334]

Nice bed Lucky! Spoiled dog! Lol

[@kosinpiriyithinkul5409]

Tung oil is teak oil right?

[@tybernard9620]

Can you make me one? And if so how much would you charge? And where state do you live in? Thanks

[@michaelpoyntz774]

Cool staining procedures I haven't seen used but will incorporate in some of my projects. Thanks!

[@danielgonzales8279]

Great bed and great video mad. I would have added a more cloud like cushion though. Just my opinion. My dog would love it just as much as I love her. Thanks for sharing

[@brutewarrior]

I have a morkie poo kind of like sweet lucky there. Great job 👍

[@Smudgie33]

Came here because of Lucky (I have a Bichon Frise), watched and liked because of the build! 🙂

[@crystalchavez4576]

Step 1 give up 🤔 Step 2 try to contact him to buy a bed from him for my Great Dane pup

[@erniehenshaw4161]

Lucky is Sweet And Very LUCKY!!!!!!

[@grantdavidson5069]

Very cool little bed Cory. We have exactly the same dog only he's an Opie. ( Maltese/Chihuahua)

[@bullsensation1669]

I pretty much have the same size dog, what were the measurements on the box if you dont mind me asking?

[@slacov101]

Great Work!

[@MicheleNichols2]

I would love to know how much that cost you to make.

[@jraglob5924]

I made one for a small dog out of a wooden wine case with bun feet and a cushion, just a thought.

[@vincentcoronis3531]

Great vid. Thanks. I just got a Miter saw now I need a table saw to do this.

[@1000dalias]

well done! what a beautiful project

[@javierlee2986]

can u make a vid on making a bigger bed for my new husky

[@deannapowell8648]

You can do a 5 year old puppy 🐶 happens to be a tea cup Yorkers

[@rochelle9022]

Will you marry me?? Lol, great job

[@bigmac9013]

Mate that is motherfricken bad ass

[@jordanvictorino4382]

my granddaughter has a new puppy

[@bamciefly]

I have three poms who need a bed for all to sleep on. I was wondering if I can use same format but larger and maybe some legs like 2x4?

[@CoreyRametta]

Of course, modify as needed

[@tracyratcliffe6388]

i like that, thanks for sharing

[@duncanmacleod7283]

Nice job, but are all these stains pet safe? I can imagine your doggy gnawing on the timber and would hate to see it being poisoned!

[@CoreyRametta]

He doesn't gnaw, so I'm not worried.

[@sicstringerman]

Nice job and great instructional video!

[@CoreyRametta]

+King Beard thanks

[@michellelim4961]

Love it. How did you do the cutouts for the angle iron. wish you would have shown that part. Im trying to figure out that process and tools/machinery used.

[@CoreyRametta]

+Michelle Lim you can use a table saw to cut out a thin section

[@michellelim4961]

Ok great. Thats what I thought. Im giving this a try but Im doung a slat base instead of plywood. Im loving your design! Thanks for the inspiration.

[@danieleangelosante]

4:15 pulisci la colla!

[@javierlee2986]

can u make a vid on making a bigger bed for my new husky

[@MissCandyTattoo]

Javier Lee it would be the exact tame process just larger dimensions.

[@elizflores4003]

Wow!! I'm in love

[@budgetnest963]

Nice dog bed. Your dog is so cute. He looks a lot like mine. What breed is he?

[@CoreyRametta]

Thanks! He's a Maltese

[@budgetnest963]

Np. Mine is a Chihuahua Maltese mix. Dogs can be different breeds and look so similar. That's why I ask. Lol

[@kourtneyhoffman7809]

The first saw you used, is that a table saw?

[@CoreyRametta]

+Kourtney Brant no that was a mitre saw.

[@YOUTUBEISRANBYRETARDS]

Wouldn't work for my dog because there's no padding support around the frame. Hip dysplasia or arthritis is bad enough for dogs but uncomfortable neck positions on hard surfaces is extremely bad for dogs.

[@Rgarcia713]

NICE!

[@pswetman2007]

Nice!

[@wood4nothing284]

Cool

[@richardcorbin936]

Be a lot cheaper to buy one!

[@CoreyRametta]

What’s the fun in that???
