Bed

Excellent! It looks like you have a very nice shop.

Wow! Nice work, and I agree with Charlie, nice shop!

There’s some serious machinery in that shop. Looks like you’ve got great assembly space too. Great bed!

The bed is beautiful and appears to be well made – the shop was (I assume you no longer have it) really nice. Sorry, but the only language I have is English.

Great work, nice bed

-- James - Geneva, Switzerland

looks great, I made one very similar to this but it had steel rails instead of wood slats. (I like your version better)

Very nice. Do you still have that great looking tablesaw?

-- Jesus is Lord!

Great bed! I have been thinking of building a bed of similar design.

-- Chris

I am making a bed similar to this but I can’t decide what kind of structure I should make for supporting the weight. I mean in the center area of the bed. I have 3 versions on my mind.
1. Simply to lay long slats across the whole width wich seems to be fragile or bendable.
2. Make a supporting slat from the front to the rear board with the wider face up wich has to be supported by leg(s) underneath it.
3. Make a supporting slat from the front to the rear board with its side up wich might be too high and has to be put very low wich looks a bit weird.

How did you make it? Wich is better?

Sorry if this was a dummy question but I am not an experienced woodworker.

John, the bükkfa is beech in english. (If you haven’t figured out already.)
