(the 2 pic in the gallery is from the company makes the castles. I used them for idea..) I HAD TO TAKE OFF THE PICTURES. I made this castle bed for my 3 years old daughter birthday. She turned 3 last week. Took 2 weeks to finish it and about $800-$1000. 13 sheet cabinet grade plywood, 3 sheet mdf, 8 2X4, paint… (The bed part is a full size bed.)The company makes it charges $5000-$60000 for those castles. Can you believe that?
Here are the pic

That is very cool and much nicer than the company’s version. Great job!

Great! I sent this to my wife and not only does she want one for our daughter, but my sister-in-law wants two for her kids. I definitely need a couple of new tools for this one..

How did you get it in the room? I will have to sawzall the one I built to get it out of room. But then I would get to build another. :) I’m thinking 3 stories.

Did you have to cut the pieces or did you buy them already cut?
Have your say...
