Well done.

Not bad looking, but I agree with you on the paint. How did the chains attache to the frame (they look like they go dirrectly in the post via screws) Or is there some type of brace?

Whats interesting about this bed is, it would really be easy to clean and dust underneath.

Good job

I really must finish my screened in porch. I can see myself taking a nap in something like that on a lazy Sunday afternoon.

Looks good and at the right price for a reasonable profit. The 450 is without the mattress right.

Sandhill- The green one is the one that someone else sells online, she saw it and sent me a picture. I wish that was the price I was gettting, but my price is about half of that. The matress is not included.
Richard- the chains attach to eyebolts that are bolted thru the posts close to the bottom.

Nice job. I think it looks great, especially the work you did on the top of the posts. Is your customer local or did you have to ship it?

Thanks Scott!!
The top is really easy to do, take about a minute or so per post on the bandsaw. Take longer to mark and tape than to cut. The customer is about thirty miles away in Birmingham and I will deliver it to her, for a delivery fee of course.

It looks sweet!

I saw that and was noodling how to H-Cane proof it down here in Tampa! But I had to shut down the puter and unplug everything as a little boomer blew thru.. I have a really big porch.. it’s about 12×30 and covered with another 3-4 feet of overhang and when the wind blows there really is not a dry place… Maybe Ill look into some kind of bettr waterproof mattresses?

Anyway nice job! Glad you are making a bit of silver in this economy.

Very cool! A short time back they were wildly popular here. I was making them out of old single bed frames. Your built to last from scratch version is better looking.
