I like it. My wife wants a bed like that as well! Thanks for posting.

It turned out great! There is nothing like the satisfaction of making something for much less than they charge in a store!

Nice project. You probably have 4 times the quality at 1/4 of the price. Now take the money you saved and buy more tools. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful bed, however I understood that Sleigh bed was symmetrical head & foot?

Impressive execution, matching grain.

Sounds like you just got yourself a free pass to spend $1299 on tools!

Very Nice! Really like the shape of the headboard and the turned feet. How long did that take to do? I imagine the finishing took just as long as the building.

Took a couple of months. I started working on it in October but then the weather was so nice that I stopped and redid my screen in porch. Finished it November. It took two weeks to apply the finish.

Beautiful bed! Made my wife one a few years ago. That grew to a whole bedroom set. It was a experience to remember. But an heirloom for the ages. Nice turnings. Great finish. Good luck on the cost savings vs. new tools.
it’s a great way to add to the shop. I say new tools wife states new furniture dreams. this months it’s a Murphy Bed for the spare room/Office. Thanks for the Great post.
