the bed

That looks great! As long as the little girl is happy and mommy are happy you’ve succeeded. Don’t worry about the joints being off a little, I’m going on thirty years and I still have issues with joints from time to time.

By the way welcome to LJ’s

Nice Bed!

A set of bunk beds were the first “big” project for me too. Isn’t is a satisfying feeling to see you daughter enjoying her new bed and then you think “Wow, I made that!” I know that it is for me.

Keep up the nice work!

it is indeed and it kept me going when I was frustrated knowing it was for my girl as well as slowing me down and making me take my time

Jake, keep at it. The more projects you do the more comfortable you’ll get.

Nice job Jake! You’ve accomplished two things: 1) A bed for your daughter and 2) Memories that you and your daughter can rehash for a lifetime.

Also, if MAMMA is happy, the Jake household is happy!!! :) :)

Take care. Stay safe. Keep the faith.

Looks like it fits in the room nicely and your daughter is happy with it. Success!
