Double bed with own hands

Furniture of good quality, yes even from natural wood, will cost a pretty penny. The original design paired with a good mattress will only increase the cost. So why not save money at work, but bet on good materials and a quality orthopedic mattress ? Below we will consider several options for making a double bed with your own hands.

Wooden double bed in eco-style with own hands

First we will consider a master class, in which you do not have to especially design anything or pre-produce the drawings.

  1. First of the planks we will make the basis. To do this, we take measurements from the finished mattress.
  2. We will cross the boards crosswise. Pre-mark, where we will make connectors for the top board.
  3. And now, as accurately as possible, we cut out the connectors for the fasteners.
  4. The base of the body is ready.
  5. To be able to lay out the boards under the mattress, inside the frame we fix the additional board along the entire perimeter.
  6. We lay the bottom of the bed.
  7. Next, you need to make the legs for a double bed, made by own hands. As the legs we will use the most real wooden decks or pillars.
  8. They should also cut the openings under the cross, which turned out in the fastening points of the sidewalls of the base.
  9. So, we made our own hands the skeleton of a double bed. It's about decorating. With the aid of a soldering iron or a mechanical torch based on propane, a very original shade is obtained, and no coating or finish is needed.

Double bed in industrial style with your own hands

And here is a variant of metal, for fans of industrial and slightly cool design.

  1. This time we will need aluminum chrome pipes, so-called "cams" and "tees".
  2. Your task is to determine the width and length of the sleeper. And then to find such pipes in your city and, depending on the expected length, to acquire the necessary quantity and dimensions.
  3. First, we collect the head and the part where the legs will be located. In the center, we also put on the hinge. Since the wooden lamellae will be laid further under the mattress, it is worthwhile to strengthen the structure and ensure its rigidity and reliability.
  4. We collect the skeleton of the bed.
  5. We lay those wooden lamellas.
  6. The result was an original double bed in an industrial style, made by own hands.

Wooden double bed with box frame by own hands

The third option is the most difficult. This time, we will use the drawings on which the process of forming the box frame of the bed is completely painted.

  1. So, to begin with, you should consider the frame model with the dimensions of each part from all sides.
  2. Below is the model of the side part. On the right head, the left will be placed feet.
  3. Cross-section of the frame near the legs.
  4. Headboard.
  5. To make a double bed with our own hands, we will use self-tapping screws, building glue (as some parts have different thicknesses, we will additionally glue plasterboard sheets or boards to them to reach one thickness).
  6. On the glue we collect the details of the headboard .
  7. Next, individually, we collect each part of the frame, then these parts into one.
  8. In the inner part, the structures can be reinforced with iron corners. It is also possible, if desired, to use the side parts of the frame as small shelves, add legs or use the option of fixing wooden slats from the first master class.

As a result, it turns out that saving money at work, buying good building materials and showing a little imagination for decoration is not so difficult.
