Great video ! Thx

Nice build!!! I recently built a similar frame for my king size bed, I prefer using 1x4 slats side to side with a center runner and small posts to support the center since kings have 2 box springs. Just an fyi, poles are round, posts are vertical, beams are horizontal. I added a couple items to mine- on the headboard I put a wider 2x board to have a shelf and recessed some led under counter lights

Thank you🤘

[@charlotte-elliceezikwa7822]

Great video! Thanks for sharing :) Just wondering, what about the boards that go underneath the mattress?

[@gagejohnson]

Glad you liked the video!..and I think I mentioned it in the video but I didn’t put any on my build since I was using a box spring under my mattress, but if I were only using a mattress I would put those boards across the bottom!

[@refilweseboko6349]

Wow.. I absolutely love it 😍

[@gagejohnson]

Thank you!

[@michaelwilkinson682]

Amazing

[@itsrumexa]

Woahh I love itt 👏🏻‼️Awesome video Gage!!

[@gagejohnson]

Thank you!

[@audreydawson1931]

So with your method/technique, disassembly IS possible correct? Because I’m planning to build in a garage and then bring it home. I want to be sure I can get it home

[@audreydawson1931]

Also, about how long did this take you?

[@gagejohnson]

Yes! I built this so that it could be taken apart and rebuilt!…the only thing I might’ve changed was that I kept the longer sections attached to the poles, but I think having the front and back sections would be a better option due to them being smaller and easier to move in a house! I’d say it took me a couple days!

[@maitydiy]

Nice!!

[@tammysensel79]

Is this a queen?

[@gagejohnson]

Yes!

[@Marshae_Aleah]

Can you paint this wood or gloss it ?

[@gagejohnson]

I stained it with a stain mixture that I referred to in the video and then sealed it with a satin polycrylic, but if you're asking CAN you then of course you can!

[@vaggelistoubos3451]

That looks awsomee! Do u do orders or just stuff for your house?

[@gagejohnson]

Thanks!!...and I do both..occasionally I’ll do things for the house and sometimes I have people order things!

[@vinnyvegan9641]

hello! what size pocket hole screws did you use?

[@gagejohnson]

I believe I used 1 3/4” ones

[@chanifarr8983]

How much did it cost overall?

[@gagejohnson]

I don’t know exactly how much but ballpark is $175 or so...and that’s with wood prices being at an all time high!

[@chanifarr8983]

@@gagejohnson You did and amazing job Gage! Thank You for sharing your talent and your time.

[@kendrabowyer7845]

Hi! I’m trying to make this in a queen, but I can’t see anywhere in your comments what lengths you cut each of the boards to….

[@gagejohnson]

Hi!..if you look in the video description there should be a link to the medium article I wrote!..I believe I gave dimensions in that article!

[@viplavanand5077]

Good effort. But pocket holes joinery won't provide it the strength which a bed needs....

[@chester222333]

what size bed is this for? i’m trying to make a full/double

[@gagejohnson]

It’s for a queen!

[@neahzjaandrades3569]

What size is the bed? I have a queen and I would love to make my own to avoid paying nearly $1000 for one bed frame.

[@gagejohnson]

It’s a queen size!

[@rylogan]

i’m 15 and wanting to do this any advice?

[@gagejohnson]

Super cool that you want to try it out!…and the best advice that I can think of is to probably not make the sides of it the put together section like I did if that makes sense..I would make the top and end the put together sections so it’s easier to move around in a house!

[@lailaded8034]

I don’t have tools to cut wood 😢😢😢

I can't subscribe because he's at 333 subscribers and I'll mess it up. Do you win a lot of money in Las Vegas with that number?

[@gagejohnson]

I’m not sure?..that would be really nice though right?! Lol..I’ve always heard it’s an angel number!

[@thenewjs]

You ain't clapping any cheeks on that.

You have a cool first name, kudoes to your parents (You were way too tiny and pre-verbal to pick your own name out. Probably.)
