Twin Bed

Project by missingdigitworkshop posted 15 days ago 200 views 1 time favorited 6 comments Add to Favorites Watch

This is a twin bed I made about 3 years ago.
It is made from 3/4 ply with iron on edge banding. It has 5 coats of wipeon poly. I was disappointed with the wipeon’s lack of shine and have not used it since.
The drawers are made of 3/4 ply and slide on dadoes.

I like the various sizes of your storage options.

WOW that a is lot of drawers. How do you find the drawers on dados; are they sticky?

Very nice, & well crafted.

I prefer the satin sheen to the high gloss. I shows the beauty of the wood better.

The drawers slide fine. The runners are oak and are 1/8 smaller than the dadoe.
