I'm looking for an idea/plan for a twin bed. I'll probably make it from walnut to match the dresser I made for my grandson last fall. I browsed through a few of your albums, but after awhile I thought I'd appeal for help directly. If you have a pic/plan for sharing, please reply.
Thanks, Joe

I'm with you. Beds are one thing I have to make a couple of. I look forward to seeing some input. I believe Clay and Chuck have done one.

Joe here's pics of my master BR in cherry (bed, nightstands shown) and my son's bed in red oak.

The two beds are similar but the scale is different and his has wide slats. I built his from a picture LOML found online searching furniture sites.

Here's a twin I made. I liked it. I have made 2 of them to date. The second one The headboard and footboards had straight pieces of wood instead of the arc that this one sports. I liked the straight one better than the arc.
