Here's a real easy way to make your own bed base out of softwood timber.
This is a perfect solution to making the ideal bed base without spending hundreds of pounds.
In this project I am making a Super King Size bed, but this method can be used to make a single, small double, standard double, and King size bed.
You can do without the center slat support if you are going to make a single bed.
This DIY bed project is perfect for all skill levels, so whether you're a seasoned DIY enthusiast or just getting started, we've got you covered.

  • Suggestions: Make the legs high enough to enable you to use the large area under the bed for storage, e.g. suitcases, mother-in-law, etc. Also, cut out a rebate on the bottom of 2 legs, to allow the bed to be pushed up flush with the wall & avoid hitting the skirting board.

    • You definitely don't want a bed pushed up flush with a wall. You want some airflow to discourage mould growth.

  • When a bed is made, your bed cover hangs down near the floor completely hiding your frame. When your asleep, you don't see your frame either. So I made my bed frame for under $100 using construction lumber. The trick is to get the longest planks of wood to where after your cuts are efficient. I used 2 long planks of 2X6s to complete the perimeter. I would miter the corners using a miter saw and draw it into itself using a cargo belt strap. Diagonal measurements were identical. Then I would mark for 4 holes and drill an 1/8" extended wood drill bit to be a pilot hole. Then I would make the primary drill for basic affordable pan head screws that don't split wood. Remember to save your all your saw dust. 4ea screws in each corner is only 16 screws. For the center column I used 2ea 2X4's and hanger ties and 16 drywall screws. Now over the course of a few months, I stopped at a building site and asked one of the workers if I could pick through their wood scraps. He said, "knock yourself out". I found three partial sheets of 1/2" plywood that cover it perfectly and could be screwed down to the 2X4's and rails. The perimeter rails were cheap 2X2's. Dot's of glue every foot and a screw made for a rail much stronger than it needed to be. The legs were left over 2X6's. I made the bed high so I could make a big trundle

I was about to give up with someone else's design when your video came up!! I AM SO HAPPY!! I watched yours 'cause is THE BEST!!! my friend !! The easiest to put together and and take apart for moving purposes. Pretty looking clean frame and must have for sure nice aroma too. I don't like to copy-cat 100%, but pretty close..I will just make one small change in the little piece of wood that goes in the center from front and bottom of 2"×6" to hold/support the 2"×3" timber that hold the slots across. Congratulations I give you 100% ☺️👊👍Muchas Gracias🙏..Hasta Vista🙋AMIGO..!!SALUTES desde Alberta, Canadá

    • Hi Rolando, did you make this bed in the end? If so, could I ask what change you made to the little piece of wood? I feel like that is the only week spot in this design. It's basically a 1" strip of wood holding the 2"x3" (it's only as strong as it's weakest spot, and the screw is going to doing be most of the work).

We chose to make the (head end) legs higher, at 39” (100mm), and the foot legs 20”(50mm). The upper legs we have included to horizontal bars, thus giving us a headboard. Comments so far have been positive, we tell them it was from your site. 👍👍👍👍
