I Built A Thuma Bed Frame From Cherry Hardwood

[@davidwhite1465]

The bit about making the castle joint stronger is so important. Excellent craftmanship and video.

[@ted9876]

Nice work. The splines at the castle joint for strength was genius and added to the look when stained. I love working with cherry.

[@youtukang]

Yess sir ☺☺☺

[@SocialMediaSoup]

first time I saw splines being used and he's right about it.

[@lucaguarro6116]

i don't understand how the splines add strength for the castle joint

[@thepeacefulwoodworker9356]

The splines are positioned at a 90 degree angle to go against the wood grain. Otherwise the notch in the joint will break along the grain.

[@Environmenthrall]

It's funny, this style of woodworking video is so much more straightforward and easily digestible.

[@youtukang]

Very nice work. Most people lack your love for the craft, skills, and patience.

[@bennybischoff4913]

Amazing job. I’m making one of these now and it’s definitely the most challenging thing I’ve built so far. Lots of great advice in this video!

[@philkugler2429]

Well thanks KZbin algorithm! I actually designed a bed just like this about a week ago (except it had a headboard.) This was some really high quality editing, great video!

[@jacobmsweet]

Would love to see your piece as well.

[@josephholtan3458]

One of the most beautiful videos I've ever seen. Wonderful job, thanks for sharing.

[@Calvin_Lagniappe]

The spline addition is fantastic !

[@KorraTheFrenchie]

I'm thinking of doing this myself for our daughters room. Love the video style and lack of talking, just explanations in text throughout the video.

[@MMMS75]

Great idea to rotate the grain in the castle joint! I was about to run into a similar project and this video happened to be in my feed. Was glad to see it! I also appreciate a fellow woodworker whose shop also acts as storage for family stuff. :)

[@Lawrence-gf3vc]

Good show. Excellent craftsmanship

[@bradlafferty]

Beautifully filmed, concisely explained, masterfully built! Thank you for this thoroughly enjoyable video journey!

[@Gamer0900]

The production quality of the video is fantastic! Very entertaining to watch. Also the use of hand tools, and doing things by hand is awesome!

[@mmedrano21]

Brilliant move one the spline. I didn’t quite understand why until I watched the video a second time and saw where is added structural support on the end of rail. Awesome work!

[@mountainsriversandtrees1474]

Holy cow. Yours looks 100 times better than Thuma's because of the nice cherry grain and the oil finish!

[@MrReeple]

Просто красавчик, хлопаю в ладоши стоя . И за кровать и за смонтированное видео, качество на высоте 👍👍👍 музыкальное оформление просто огонь 🔥🔥🔥

[@wildough]

Excellent video. I've been thinking about attempting this myself. If I ever get off my butt and do it I'll use you wonderful example. Thanks!

[@killawee118]

The spline is a nice touch. The center piece supporting the slats is thoughtful. Nicely done!

[@DominicPaz]

I’ve seen people build it without the spline and it’s a big mistake. It will tare out with a little force if you don’t have that spline.

[@colinwrasman9227]

This is a fantastic video. Except I don't have the tools or skills to make it.

[@rebeccaallman7937]

so Beautiful

[@Kcupguy-vj2or]

Absolutely beautiful! Both the work and the video by itself! The use of hand tools is so cool to watch and your work is top notch! Respect to you sir!

Hi, Great Job!! My wife really likes the stain color you used on the cherry. What is the stain color/number on the Watco can?

[@hdwoodshop]

Nicely done. Good detail about crossing the grain for strength

[@jbratt]

[@spy2778]

I’ve made a castle joint table before. I wish I had known then about the spline, what a great method! The patience you show when making this is becoming rare today!

[@Kaodusanya]

what happens if you dont have that spline in the castle joint. There seems to be more than enough distribution of stress in the joint. Also I bet its fine with a table, you don't usually have 300 pounds of weight plus and mattress on a bed all the time.

[@joek511]

Ya that cross grain spline , excelent, no way it will ever snap off.

[@joek511]

@@Kaodusanya Weight is not the issue. Just a little lateral movement can snap the tab at the end right off. So he added the cross grain going up and down. Then cut the notch. Like splitting wood. It splits easy with the grain but not against it.

[@AlaskaWild]

Amazing build!!!

[@koobs4549]

Check your DeWalt Compund Miter saw, models DWS779, DWS780, & DWS790 saws were recently recalled for a safety issue. If it was manufactured between 2019-2022, it has a plastic rear guard assembly that can shatter or break exposing the saw blade creating a laceration risk. If it was made before that, it should have a metal piece not prone to the same failure.

[@bill6698]

[@brentonkludt6828]

Man, I'm in your situation daily, my sweat drips right down where I'm concentrating, and I freak out thinking about how its going to affect the wood!

[@acalciu]

Remember to turn on the air conditioning when working in your shop and there will be minimal sweat. If your shop does not have AC, you should consider adding it. Makes it so much more enjoyable to work, when you are comfortable.

Excelente trabajo y diseño

[@jamesbubnick]

Great quality job.

[@peacefuldavid1]

Amazing! I want to make one myself and want to duplicate this design. For the wood, am I right in thinking that you had essentially 2 thicknesses that you worked with. 1 set was 1.5x4.5 for legs, and another set was .75x4 to construct the outside and center rails? Is that correct? How much did this lumber cost?

[@thepeacefulwoodworker9356]

Yes, correct. About $300 for the lumber in Central Cali.

[@peacefuldavid1]

Simply inspiring! I am new to the hobby though I am used to working with things with precision and patience. This will be a massive stretch for me. I am so inspired!!!

[@mattbrown6760]

Brilliant work and craftsmanship! Can I ask why the ends of the long supports were cut out on the ends and then filled in with another piece of wood?

[@thepeacefulwoodworker9356]

To add strength to the joint. The spline is glued in with the wood grain running perpendicular to the wood grain of the rail.

[@HughFleming-g1b]

Great build! Also I really like your bench? Did you use plans or design it yourself?

[@LouisNafziger]

Very nice build, what kind of felt did you use? Also, Thuma has a screw at the top and bottom of the bed to hold/draw in the center support. Have you seen a reason for it?

[@briankillebrew]

I believe it’s to make the whole thing easy to disassemble

[@LouisNafziger]

@@briankillebrew Well, this one would be even easier to disassemble since it doesn't have that screw. Hence why I was asking.

[@xenidus]

It's probably to help prevent the center leg from getting a lateral force and "twisting" the center support board. If it is just sitting in a slot there is a chance you can rotate it out with enough force

[@exxekhan]

I'm curious how much this project cost you in material? With the surge in hardwood prices this year, I bet this cost almost as much as the original Thuma. Thank you. Great video. High quality work.

[@thepeacefulwoodworker9356]

I got about 55 board feet of cherry to start. I still have about 20 board feet left. I bought the wood in August 2020 when the the prices weren’t that bad. I probably spent $400 on the wood and felt. Cool thing about this bed was there was no hardware needed.

[@exxekhan]

@@thepeacefulwoodworker9356 thank you so much. Yeah I immediately fell in love with this design when I saw the ad but didn't want to spend $900 on it. When prices come down a little more, I'll attempt this. I'm subscribing to your channel!
