Awesome bed. Very nice design and build. Obviously comes apart for transport, hope you didn’t sell it with free delivery.

Spectacular !
(It would take three of my shops to build a piece that big !) haha
Nice work Mike !

Great project – thanks for sharing. I love butternut and this reminds I need to make something out of it soon.

I have been tossing around design ideas for our bed and I am close to being ready to start (other than choosing which type of lumber that is! leaning towards Sapele). I also can’t decide how to attach the rails to the head and footboard. How did you attach these?
Thanks!
Mike

I lucked up and found some really nice Butternut at a little lumber yard in Washington Maine.As far as the rail fasteners i used the 6” 2 piece bed rail brackets. I got mine from woodworkers supply ( 12.00) I just mortised them so that they drew up tight. I prefer tenons and bed bolts but the rails didn’t center on the columns so it would look funny
